Tick Of Time

But, oh, honey, please

Don't shed no tears

As long as I'm here

It's far too early in the mornin'

To be tryin' to call you

And far too early in the daytime

To be thinkin' about that

But I (But I), but I (But I), but I am

What did I do in a past life

Oh, to deserve this?

Yeah, the way I make myself

He's far too innocent to be a part of

Such a cruel world

And it is, and it is, (And it, and it) and it is

And so I'll go, yes, I'll go

So I'll take that train and ride

Hopin' I can write her a rhyme

That might stop the tick of time

Get off this situation and feel fine

Get off this situation and feel fine

What did I do to deserve her love?

I have to ask myself

When I am such a bad man

But only to her

Only to her, (Only) only to her

Oh, and so I'll go, yes, I'll go

So I'll take that train and ride

Oh, and so I'll go, yes, I'll go

So I'll take that train and ride

Wishin', hopin' I can write her a rhyme

That might stop the tick of time

Get off this situation and feel fine

Get off this situation and feel fine
