Aja Daashuur - Eight Seconds Lyrics

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!
