VERSE 2:
Time after sometimes you picture me; I'm walking too far ahead.
You're calling to me I can't hear what you've said.
Then you say go slow, I fall behind. The second hand unwinds.
CHORUS:
If you're
[G] lost you can
[G/B] look and you
[Am7] will find me.

After my picture fades and darkness has turned to grey.
Watching through windows, you're wondering if I'm ok.
Secrets stolen from deep inside; The drum beats out of time.

You said go slow I fall behind; The second hand unwinds.
