Lyrics Time Stand Still - Kayak

Time Stand Still

If life is a ringtone
My life is a cellphone
In silent mode
I was slumbering, not sleeping
But still caught it bleepin'
A number showed
Looked at the clock, it was twenty past one
I sat up straight wondering what could be wrong
A simple hello
Was all that I said
But the moment I answered
The line just went very dead
So I had to
Check out the list
Of all the calls that I’d missed
And accordingly
There, right on top
A number came up
That was new to to me
A man can only hide for so long
But then he’ll pay for ceossing the rubicon
Now I don’t believe
We’re all part of a plan
But I’m pretty sure
That it wasn’t coincidence
Though distant and blurred
Yet the voice I heard
Just made time stand still
The number that I called
Brought my world to a halt
And if words could kill
Or cut like e knife
I’b be barely alive
For an instanct or two
I thought: This can’t be true
But I knew it was
Life’s got a way
To cross and outplay
Everyone of us
There is no going back, once the damage is done
You can’t escape fate, no matter how far you run
Some call it luck
And some call it fate
And some call it providence
No I’ll never forget
The things she said…
You weren’t supposed to find me
Thougt I’d left you far behind me
But just one call and my shelter’s gone
Won’t you leave a message
Make our love a secret passage
To where time stands still but life goes on
You made time stand still
The number that I called
Brought my world to a halt
And if words could kill
Or cut like e knife
I’b be barely alive
You made time…
