"Seventeen Seconds" lyrics

"Seventeen Seconds"
(originally by The Cure)

Time slips away
And the light begins to fade
Everything is quiet now

Feeling is gone
And the future disappears
Everything is cold now

The dream had to end
The wish never came true
The girl starts to sing

Seventeen seconds
A measure of life
Seventeen seconds
A measure of life
Seventeen seconds
Seventeen seconds
Seventeen seconds
Seventeen seconds
Seventeen seconds
Seventeen seconds
Seventeen seconds
Seventeen seconds
Seventeen seconds
Seventeen seconds
Seventeen seconds
