Every day I wake up to pictures of your face   You’re more than an obsession, you’re an acquired taste   Eight seconds of your smile   Eight seconds of your face   What a disgrace I walked towards you too late      (Chorus)   And you’re so beautiful   Eight seconds in my life and I’ve gone crazy!   And you’re so beautiful   Eight seconds I’ll never see you again – I’m crazy!      Every night I swim through crowds in a dream   To hear you speak   I beat myself up for not moving on through,   My will was too weak   Eight seconds of a glance   Eight seconds of a chance   If I’d given a damn I wouldn’t be turning in my sleep      (Chorus)   And you’re so beautiful   Eight seconds in my life and I’ve gone crazy!   And you’re so beautiful   Eight seconds I’ll never see you again – I’m crazy!      In those seconds you should’ve grabbed my hand-   Why didn’t you?   In those seconds you should’ve talked to me-   You wanted to!   Now its over, and I can’t forget   Didn’t know it was a race   No one said, “Get set!”       Every day I wake up to pictures of your face   You’re more than an obsession, you’re an acquired taste   Eight seconds of your smile   Eight seconds of your face   What a disgrace I walked towards you too late      (Chorus)   And you’re so beautiful   Eight seconds in my life and I’ve gone crazy!   And you’re so beautiful   Eight seconds I’ll never see you again – I’m crazy!
