7 Secs

[Intro] Legends told in the ocean's deep In seven seconds, dream flowers reappear in sleep I wish to turn into a fish, with worries none Forget the past, emotions undone [Verse 1] If love leaves without a sign Even fish might fear a goodbye so brief, so fine In dreams, we meet and embrace, it's true Your face and voice I can't bid adieu [Chorus] If I had but seven seconds of memory to let you go At the next heartbeat, I'd erase the pain, embrace hope's glow Become a fish swimming free, on currents that flow In seven seconds more, no ceaseless longing to show [Verse 2] Each moment replays, vivid and stark In dark spaces, I've lost the light of your mark Maybe seven seconds could edit out the past Can forgetting help heal the heart at last [Chorus] If I had but seven seconds of memory to let you go At the next heartbeat, I'd erase the pain, embrace hope's glow Become a fish swimming free, on currents that flow In seven seconds more, no ceaseless longing to show [Chorus, repeated as before] If I had but seven seconds of memory to let you go At the next heartbeat, I'd erase the pain, embrace hope's glow Become a fish swimming free, on currents that flow In seven seconds more, no ceaseless longing to show [Chorus, with variation] But truly, in seven seconds, you fade away Each heartbeat melts the pain, hopes stay A fish beneath the sea, free of envy's sway Every seven seconds, a new resolve to stay away [Chorus, repeated as before] If I had but seven seconds of memory to let you go At the next heartbeat, I'd erase the pain, embrace hope's glow Become a fish swimming free, on currents that flow In seven seconds more, no ceaseless longing to show [Bridge] How can there be joy in memories' ponds so still Emotions wild, I envy the fish with a memory so nil Depressed, suppressed, you vanished without a trace Wishing to give up, to escape, seeking peace in this embrace [Chorus, repeated as before] If I had but seven seconds of memory to let you go At the next heartbeat, I'd erase the pain, embrace hope's glow Become a fish swimming free, on currents that flow In seven seconds more, no ceaseless longing to showstay away [Short Break] [Outro] In the vast, silent deep, stories forgotten with the brine Seeking release in echoes' maze, seven seconds to realign Forgive my seven-second feats to make you a memory Forgive me, every seven, I smile at the past, and you're history [Outro with piano solo] In the vast, silent deep, stories forgotten with the brine Seeking release in echoes' maze, seven seconds to realign Forgive my seven-second(forgive me) feats to make you a memory(memory)
