Time Stand Still

If life is a ringtone
My life is a cellphone
In silent mode
I was slumbering, not sleeping
But still caught it bleepin'
A number showed

Looked at the clock, it was twenty past one
I sat up straight wondering what could be wrong

A simple hello
Was all that I said
But the moment I answered
The line just went very dead

So I had to
Check out the list
Of all the calls that I'd missed
And accordingly
There, right on top
A number came up
That was new to me

A man can only hide for so long
But then he'll pay for crossing the rubicon

Now I don't believe
We're all part of a plan
But I'm pretty sure
That it wasn't coincidence

Though distant and blurred
Yet the voice I heard

Just made time stand still
The number that I called
Brought my world to a halt
And if words could kill
Or cut like a knife
I'd be barely alive

For an instant or two
I thought: This can't be true
But I knew it was
Life's got a way
To cross and outplay
Everyone of us

There is no going back, once the damage is done
You can't escape fate, no matter how far you run

Some call it luck
Some call it chance
And some call it fate
And some call it providence

No I'll never forget
The things she said...

You weren't supposed to find me
Thougt I'd left you far behind me
But just one call and my shelter's gone

Won't you leave a message
Make our love a secret passage
To where time stands still but life goes on

You made time stand still
The number that I called
Brought my world to a halt
And if words could kill
Or cut like a knife
I'd be barely alive

You made time...
