From the recording Recollections
Lyrics
Verse 1:
It’s sad to sit around waiting
For your tears to fade away
But I would fall again in hearbeat
For one more second with you
Verse 2:
The milestones we face are never what we expect
And most of the time we will get some reward out of it
But I would give that up in a heartbeat
For one more second of innocence
Chorus 1:
One more second of courage
One more second of love
One more second of the innocence I’ve lost
One more second of the moments that I’ve treasured the most
One more second and I’ll leave it alone
Verse 3:
If you stare long enough into a mirror
An unfamiliar face eventually will appear
But I would accept all the lies I’ve told myself
For one more second of honesty
Chorus 2:
One more second of courage
One more second of love
One more second of the innocence I’ve lost
One more second of the moments that I’ve treasured the most
One more second and I’ll leave it alone
One more second and I’ll leave it alone
