Tick tock tick tock ticking
Tick tock tick tock ticking
Away
Well I poured my heart into my hands
But emotion took the best of me
And walked away
Now I hang my head
I start to cry
I wonder why I had to even wake up today
Then I see what I've waited for
And it makes me smile again
Think about the times I couldn't stand no more
Then I start to think of you again
Tick tock tick tock ticking
Tick tock tick tock ticking
Away
I took some changes with my life
But they kept me locked and beaten
In the cold outside
And I call you on the telephone
All my bills are paid
But there's no dial tone
Then I hear what I've waited for
And it makes me smile again
Think about the times I couldn't take no more
Then I hear your voice again
Tick tock tick tock ticking
Tick tock tick tock ticking
Away
Tick tock tick tock ticking
Tick tock tick tock ticking
Away
Then I see what I've waited for
And it makes me smile again
Think about the times I couldn't stand no more
Then I start to think of you again
Tick tock tick tock ticking
Tick tock tick tock ticking
Away
Tick tock tick tock ticking
Tick tock tick tock ticking
Away
