And The Clock Goes Round

Use A− / A+ to adjust text size
I came down here just to waste some timeTo get a little rest and to ease my mindI didn't calculate it when I walked in the doorI only thought I'd stay for a minute or moreFirst I saw the lights on the ceiling dimThe stale perfume yeah, and the beer canteensMy first impression was to get outsideBut then I saw you crying, crying by the firesideThe pendulum swingsGoing to and froAnd the clock goes roundSays it's time to goAnd the clock goes roundAnd the hours fly pastSlow down pendulum you're moving much too fastNow it's gone kind of quiet but I seem to seeThat the only people here in the room are you and meBut I don't mind girl, girl that's all rightAs long as you're gonna be with megonna be with me all night
