TIME AFTER TIME
Moonchild Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Without the expectations
You always catch them by surprise
This is an invitation
'Cause it won't be the last time

Keep shining
Grinding
You know they need reminding (reminding)
It won't be the last time

It's petty
When they only see you with their eyes (their eyes)
Their ears ain't ready (in the meantime)
Baby, in the meantime

Keep shining
Keep grinding
You know they need reminding (reminding)
It won't be the last time

Let me show you, show you what I came for
Show you, show you what I'm made for
This is the invitation
It won't be the last
This is the invitation
It won't be the last time





It won't be the last time
It won't be the last time
