This is something I'm doing just for fun -- to live out a lifelong dream since the age of around 7 or so when I realized that I could carry a tune (without the use of a bucket!) and it didn't sound bad. Much love and thanks go to those in my SoundClick family (and now beyond!) who helped to encourage/challenge me to spread my wings to try this out and continue to take it to the next level. Without your kind support I'd still be just a listener (not that there's anything wrong with that).

Lyrics
TIME AFTER TIME ============ Lying in my bed I hear the clock tick and think of you Caught up in circles, confusion is nothing new Flash back warm night, almost left behind Suitcase of memories Time after Sometime you pictured me I'm walking too far ahead You're callin' to me I can't hear what you've said Then you said, "Go slow" I fall behind The second hand unwinds If you're lost you can look and you will find me Time after time If you fall I will catch you, I'll be waiting Time after time If you're lost you can look and you will find me Time after time If you fall I will catch you, I'll be waiting Time after time After my picture fades And darkness has turned to grey Watching through windows You're wondering if I'm OK Secrets stolen from deep inside The drum beats out of time If you're lost you can look and you will find me Time after time If you fall I will catch you, I'll be waiting Time after time You said, "Go slow" I fall behind The second hand unwinds If you're lost you can look and you will find me Time after time If you fall I will catch you, I'll be waiting Time after time Time after time Time after time Time after time...

Wow Mary your voice is so fresh and pure and it always makes me smile, love the harmonies. I prefer your version to the original.

I especially liked the bits where you went 'I will be waiting' and where Wayne joined in with you, it was so hard to listen to him because I couldn't stop joining in at those points! It really worked, it was a great choice, but I missed out in the theme for this challenge - I have not had time to check out the other artists in the group this time.

Ah memories. June 84, our first ever visit to the USA - my new(ish) wife, baby son and me. This tune was on the radio all the time as we drove around New England. Never tire of hearing it. Perfect version, MC - really great.

The songs that you choose to cover are all really hard and favorites of mine, but you breathe fresh air into this version. Awesome!!!
