TIME AFTER TIME,
I'LL FAKE A SMILE.

TIME AFTER TIME,
I'LL CRY A WHILE.

TIME AFTER TIME,
I'LL THINK OF YOU.

AND EVERY SO OFTEN,
I'LL COME UNGLUED.

BUT EVERY TIME YOU SEE ME,
YOU WALK THE OTHER WAY.

AND EVERY TIME I SAY HELLO,
YOU JUST SIMPLY WAVE.

AND EVERY TIME I SEE YOU,
MY MIND BEGINS TO RACE.

IT TAKES ME TO ANOTHER TIME AND TO ANOTHER PLACE.
AND IT MAKES ME REALIZE THAT I NEVER NEEDED YOU,

AND NOW I KNOW HOW MUCH ITS TRUE.
AND YET TIME AFTER TIME.

I FAKE A SMILE.
TIME AFTER TIME,

I'LL CRY A WHILE.
TIME AFTER TIME,

I'LL THINK OF YOU.
AND EVERY SO OFTEN,

I COME UNGLUED.
AND YET YOU STILL RUN,

AND MY HEART GETS BROKEN.
I KNOW YOU SEE,

WHAT YOUR COLD HEART DOES TO ME.
I JUST WANTED YOU TO KNOW,

THAT I'M TRYING HARD TO LET YOU GO.
BUT NO MATTER HOW HARD I TRY,

I THINK OF YOU,
TIME AFTER TIME.
