it’s midnight
the witching hour
the shadows
they creep in through my door
why have you
why have you come here for me?
and are you,
yeah, are you friend or enemy?
oh, now the moments gone
yeah now the moments gone
your love is
like clockwork
i count the second ‘til you’re gone
try to hit
the reset
but seems my timing’s always
wrong,
wrong,
wrong
always wrong,
wrong,
wrong.
so long.
and when you
and when you came back on that day
you loved me
like you had never left me
so now I
i guess i’ll play along
but still I,
I feel there’s something wrong
oh, now the moments gone
yeah now the moments gone
your love is
like clockwork
i count the second ‘til you’re gone
try to hit
the reset
but seems my timing’s always
wrong,
wrong,
wrong
always wrong,
wrong,
wrong.
so long.
time can heal but not erase
these moonlit scars across my face
you measure love in tics and tocks,
but i, i’m just a second on your clock.
your love is
like clockwork
i count the second ‘til you’re gone
try to hit
the reset
but seems my timing’s always
wrong,
wrong,
wrong
always wrong,
wrong,
wrong.
