The ticking of the clock
In the hall, it’s past midnight
Lying here in the dark
Not knowing when it starts
The rain pounding on the roof
All to well, the unknown
Then the time sets in
A chime rings out
Flowing through the window
A timeless moment
Bringing with a cool breath of air
The winters hold
White crystal flakes swirl
Blanketing the world
With a dusting of sparkle
It dances
In and out of focus
It dances
All the way to the moon
It dances
Bring back the love
The ticking of the clock
It’s time to rejoice
As its closer than it was
Sitting here thinking
Of the song
Brings joy
Listen to the time go by
As the clock ticks one more time
