Eight Seconds

Every day I wake up to pictures of your face
Youre more than an obsession, youre an acquired taste
Eight seconds of your smile
Eight seconds of your face
What a disgrace I walked towards you too late

(Chorus)
And youre so beautiful
Eight seconds in my life and Ive gone crazy!
And youre so beautiful
Eight seconds Ill never see you again Im crazy!

Every night I swim through crowds in a dream
To hear you speak
I beat myself up for not moving on through,
My will was too weak
Eight seconds of a glance
Eight seconds of a chance
If Id given a damn I wouldnt be turning in my sleep

(Chorus)
And youre so beautiful
Eight seconds in my life and Ive gone crazy!
And youre so beautiful
Eight seconds Ill never see you again Im crazy!

In those seconds you shouldve grabbed my hand-
Why didnt you?
In those seconds you shouldve talked to me-
You wanted to!
Now its over, and I cant forget
Didnt know it was a race
No one said, Get set!

Every day I wake up to pictures of your face
Youre more than an obsession, youre an acquired taste
Eight seconds of your smile
Eight seconds of your face
What a disgrace I walked towards you too late

(Chorus)
And youre so beautiful
Eight seconds in my life and Ive gone crazy!
And youre so beautiful
Eight seconds Ill never see you again Im crazy!
