Lyrics

In the last days of September As the leaves fell from the trees As the wind started blowing colder That's when time just stopped for me I should've seen it coming I thought I was prepared But the winter just came running Freezing everything we shared And the clock keeps ticking away Tick tock ticking away I wake up, I fall down Lying here on the stony ground And the clock on the wall keeps ticking away (Tick tock ticking away) It's a long way to climb Has it all been a waste of time 'Cause the clock on the wall keeps ticking away (Tick tock ticking away) I should try to turn me loose To cut the ties that bind I should just cut down the booze Have a clear and open mind But things they just don't work that way When all the light is dark So all I do is hope and pray To get back the fire and spark And the clock keeps ticking away Tick tock ticking away I wake up, I fall down Lying here on the stony ground And the clock on the wall keeps ticking away (Tick tock ticking away) It's a long way to climb Has it all been a waste of time 'Cause the clock on the wall keeps ticking away (Tick tock ticking away) And the clock keeps ticking away I wake up, I fall down Lying here on the stony ground And the clock on the wall keeps ticking away (Tick tock ticking away) It's a long way to climb Has it all been a waste of time 'Cause the clock on the wall keeps ticking away (Tick tock ticking away)
