Time After Time

Seeing that yesterday was spring forward day for our clocks, I thought for sure the song the teacher would use to serenade us in savasana at the end of hot yoga would be this classic:

Lying in my bed I hear the 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 -

I was wrong. It wasn't. Yesterday. I said something to him about it, and tonight, as we wrapped up another hot yoga practice, I smiled as he began to sing:

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

If you're lost you can look - and you will find me
Time after time
If you fall I will catch you - I'll 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 -

If you're lost...

You said go slow -
I fall behind
The second hand unwinds -

If you're lost...
...Time after time
Time after time
Time after time
Time after time

One more week in my month of hot yoga. So good for me in the winter!
