As the hands of the clock tic away the time
as always my love you are on my mind.

As the time grows near for you to be here
I get this pain in my chest I think it's called fear.

But if the hands of the clock where to stand still I know
this is something that would give me no great thrill.

And when the time come that we meet I will be at your feet.

For you are the air that fills my lungs, My reason for existing,
My reason to love !
