Tick Tock

TIME

Sixty seconds, one minute

My hands can’t hold the time

It takes for those two hands

To tick away another moment

Another breath I can’t get back

Will you promise me what you can’t see?

Will you believe in me what you can’t be?

Will you trust in me what you can’t speak?

Fog is creeping over my mind

But I fight it while I love it

Because the ocean needs a partner

And you with your blurry notes

Can make me dance like no one else

Will you promise me what you can’t see?

Will you believe in me what you can’t be?

Will you trust in me what you can’t speak?

One hour, sixty minutes

I’ll hold the door, hold it open for you

Press my foot into that small space

Where everything escapes and I kick myself

For not using all of me to block the tide

  

Will you promise me what you can’t see?

Will you believe in me what you can’t be?

Will you trust in me what you can’t speak?
