Twenty Seconds ft. Poison Lilly

V6

That diner off the highway You stole the fries right off my plate You swore the coffee tasted terrible Then ordered more anyway You asked me how I'd been sleeping I said, "Not much." You said, "Me too." We talked about a hundred things I wish we'd talked more about you Twenty seconds That's all a moment ever was A joke you made to get me laughing When I couldn't find the words When I couldn't find the words... Sunday morning, no reply Your car was in the drive I used the key you gave me Called your name and stepped inside I found you by the sofa Called for help, gave them your name Set the phone down there beside us And did exactly what they said "Stay with me..." "One, two, three, four..." "Come on... please..." "Five, six, seven, eight..." "I'm here... I'm here..." "Please..." The medics took my place beside you I waited in the hall One came out and said, "I'm sorry" Then I saw that I'd missed your call Twenty seconds That's all a moment ever was Till I was down there on the floor Begging for just one more. Begging for just one more... Twenty seconds I can hear myself count I keep calling out your name But you don't make a sound I still hear you at that diner Swearing at the coffee in your cup You always knew when I was hurting Even when I wouldn't open up Twenty seconds That's all a moment ever was Till I was down there on the floor Begging for just one more....... "Hey..." "No... you're not bothering me." "I've got time." "I'm here."
