"In a second" by Carli Verster

In a second

I want to be able
To remember your name.
I want to remember
It’s only air that we breathe,
It’s only blood that pumps through our veins.
Like the memory of you.

Chorus

Never spoke a word.
Never saw me here.
In a second I could be yours.
You needed someone
To say something,
That’s why I’m screaming.
In a second I was yours.
Only a smile,
Replace this hope.
Something so strong
It held me on my knees.
Until I see you again.

I forced myself,
Making a deal.
Was it the right sign
Or just a perfect misunderstanding?
No fate or chance tonight.
Standing next to you, so close.
Touching your arm,
Your hand in mine.
In a brief second you saw me
As I gazed into your eyes.
Only a smile.

Chorus

I couldn’t stop looking,
Looking for your face among the waste.
You weren’t hard to find.
Heart jumping as I close my eyes.
I’ll remember you, tonight.
Praying for the light,
To find a way
For me to see
We were never meant to be.

Chorus

In a second I was yours.
Screaming,
Down on my knees.
I’ll dream tonight,
Sound asleep,
While I know
you’re still a mystery to me.
