Timewatching Lyrics by The Divine Comedy

Liberation

1997

[Verse 1]
When I fall asleep it could be forever
So I'll never fall asleep again
When I fall apart put me back together
And my life will be complete

[Chorus]
Maybe it's tonight
Maybe tomorrow night
Next week
Next month
Next year
We've only time to fear

[Verse 2]
When I fall behind in the quest for pleasure
I shall treasure this short time with you
We shall not be chained
We shall not be tethered
And we'll never be unkind

[Chorus]
Maybe it's tonight
Maybe tomorrow night
Next week
Next month
Next year
We've only time to fear

[Verse 3]
If I fall in love it could be forever
So I'll never fall in love
But the moment I can feel that you feel that way too
Is when I might fall in love with you
Fall in love with you
