How to hold a texts scroll for 3 seconds then scroll off?

Okay, I'm not getting what I wanted. Here is my code:

TweenLite.to(txtField, 3, {x:200, ease:Linear.easeNone, delay:0.5});
var timer:Timer = new Timer(3000, 2);
    timer.addEventListener(TimerEvent.TIMER, scrollOut);
    timer.start();
function scrollOut(e:TimerEvent):void{
    TweenLite.to(txtField, 3, {x:-200, ease:Linear.easeNone, delay:0.5, onComplete:Inspiration});
}

I want the tweenlite to wait 3 seconds and the proceede with scroll off the screen that's why I have the scrollOut function; however, the effect is that the scrolling from right is pausing for 3 seconds every 2 seconds. How do I modify this?
