Tick Of Time (+ hidden track ‘All Over Town’)

TICK OF TIME

It's far too early in the morning,
To be trying to call you
And far too early in the daytime,
To be thinking about that
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 is

So I'll go, yes I'll go
So I'll take that train and ride
Hoping I could 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 to her

So I'll go, yes I'll go
So I'll take that train and ride
So I'll go, yes I'll go
So I'll take that train and ride
Wishing, hoping I could 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

ALL OVER TOWN

Dear sir, did I see you fleeting?
I cared for your heart, but not for it beating
You try to put a frown on me, fell me down
You are spreading bad things about me all over town
But I'll show no frown

Because all over town, yes, all over town
There are people who would undermine you if they could
Don't let them in

What do you see when you see me sir?
The very same thing that makes you bitter
So you say all these outrageous things, that's what you do
Yes, but you're no poet man, you just want everyone looking at you
So I'll shown no frown

Because all over town, yes, all over this town
There are people who would undermine you if they could
Don't let them in

Oh, all over town, yes, all over this town
There are people who would undermine me if they could
Won't let them in
