Hollis Wake – Dirty Seconds lyrics

30 seconds in your arms to listen to your heart.
30 seconds, time enough to stop before we start.
30 seconds in your arms to listen to your breath.
30 seconds after you leave, I've got nothing left.
30 seconds to pretend that you could love me, too.
30 seconds to forget she's laid her claim on you.
30 seconds in your arms, to last my whole life through.
30 seconds, where's the harm, that's all we ever do.

30 seconds in your arms to listen to your heart.
30 seconds, time enough to stop before we start.
30 seconds in your arms to listen to your breath.
30 seconds after you leave, I've got nothing left.
30 seconds to pretend that you could love me, too.
30 seconds to forget she's laid her claim on you.
30 seconds in your arms, I'll stretch it ‘cross my life.
30 seconds, where's the harm, just never tell your wife.

I wonder if I'd never touched your face if I could die
or if I'd keep pretending that I hadn't fallen for you.
Yeah, it's sick, I think I hate you.
But I can't, because you're too much.
Plenty more where that came from, there's heaven.
Too late, I'm just dirty seconds.
