Time After Time (with Ray Barretto) - Sonny Stitt, Ray Barretto, Bother Jack McDuff

Lying at night in bed

I heard clock tick and think of you

Caught up in circles

Confusion is nothing new

Flashback, warm nights

Almost left behind suitcases of memories

Time after sometimes you picture me

I’m walking too far ahead

You’re calling to me

I can’t hear what you have said

Then you say, go slow

I fall behind

The second hand unwinds

If you’re lost, you can look and you will find me

Time after time

If you fall, I will catch you, I will be waiting

Time after time

After my picture fades and darkness has turned to gray

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

Time after time

Time after time

Time after time

Time after time

Time after time

Time after time

Time after time

Time after time
