tick tock tick tock

...tick tock...tick tock...tick tock
another second, it'll turn into an hour
around the clock and the sun is down
I won't be gone too long, I promise

time is passing
and the time we wasted we can never regain
time is passing me

another day closer to seeing you
I'm beginning to forget the lines on your face
I'll be home soon, I promise
Just remind me what I'm fighting for before I begin to forget

another second, it's turning into hours and hours become days
It's been over two weeks now,
my only comfort is your voice before I go to bed
these weeks will turn into months, and there will be no more yesterdays

tick tock...tick tock...tick tock
sometimes I look at my clock and wish it were dead
sometimes I wonder how often I run through your head
and when I sleep at night I reach over and find all this space

another night has gone without you
and in the morning I lie in bed
I struggle to get up and get going
I pull myself for a few hours until they turn into another day

the sun is setting today is tomorrow's yesterday
it'll be another week soon
I'll see you soon
I promise
