Lyrics

60 Seconds

Written by: Tamara Miller

Verse 1
I'm giving you 60 seconds
Say whatever's on your mind
'Cause I'm giving you just 60 seconds
It's time for you to say goodbye


But I'm not gonna leave so easily
I'll never make it on my own
I hear your voice it keeps calling me
But you've made your choice and now you're gone gone gone

CHORUS
Inside my heart, I know you're drifting
With all this pain, it's you I'm feeling
I have no choice, I'll make this easy
'Cause I got to make it on my own

Verse 2
Well I can't stay here any longer
I'm tired of fighting all the time
But I'm not gonna leave so easily
'Cause every time I try you're always beside

CHORUS
Inside my heart, I know you're drifting
With all this pain, it's you I'm feeling
I have no choice, I'll make this easy
'Cause I got to make it on my own

Bridge
Heaven knows if what we have just walked away
If only hope would shed some light to find our place

Break
I'm giving you 60 seconds, just say what's on your mind

CHORUS
Inside my heart, I know you're drifting
With all this pain, it's you I'm feeling
I have no choice, I'll make this easy
'Cause I got to make it on my own

Repeat Chorus
