Time after time

Filling up the potholes on a Chicago night
Like forgetting you when you're out of my sight
You keep coming back, time after time

Pushing at a string to make it go straight ahead
Would be like trying to keep you out of my head
Time after time, you keep returnin

Throw a baseball up and hope it won't come down
Feels like trying not to ache when you're not around
Time after time, it hits the ground

Time after time, day after day
Where I want to be
Where I want to work and play
Right there by you
No matter what you say
That's what I'm thinkin
Time after time

Try not to get wet throwin water in the wind
Expect me not to think about my girlfriend
I soak in your smile, time after time

Try to catch a hummingbird in mid-air
Or forget the sweet smell of your hair
Time after time, I'm missing you dear

Time after time, day after day
Where I want to be
Where I want to work and play
Right there by you
No matter what they say
That's what I'm thinkin
Time after time (repeat)
