21 seconds is all it took to find you
Drawn by the things that I had learned about you
Betrayed by what I could not conceal

Revealing wounds still left to heal
I realize that I'm in need of something to hold on to.


Now it's fading away.

Chorus: Now you're already gone

It seems 21 seconds was way too long
At the end of the day
It took 21 seconds to lose you

Was the moment all that was wrong?
Was it something spoken that didn't belong?
Now it's fading away

It took 21 seconds to lose you

21 seconds of meaningful conversation

Words exchanged without hesitation
And then the awkwardness that penetrates
Leaves its mark and claims its fate

Maybe we were destined to repeat this...again.

Now it's fading away.

Oh it's fading away.

Chorus: And you're already gone

It seems 21 seconds was way too long
At the end of the day
It took 21 seconds to lose you

Was the moment all that was wrong?
Was it something spoken that didn't belong?
Now it's fading away

It took 21 seconds to lose you




Bridge: And even though it makes no sense
That you should leave me now

The bitter pill of consequence
I must learn to take somehow...


Now it's fading away.
Oh it's fading away.
It's fading away.

It's fading away.

Chorus: You're already gone

It seems 21 seconds was way too long
At the end of the day
It took 21 seconds to lose you

Was the moment all that was wrong?
Was it something spoken that didn't belong?
Now it's fading away

It took 21 seconds to lose you
