Aoife O'Donovan - Captain's Clock lyrics
Your rating:
In the darkest hour of the darkest day You came and darkened my doorway Just trying to drive the dark away But I kept my shades drawn I drew a bath after you'd gone Got in the tub and soaked 'til dawn Why'd you keep me here so long? I'll keep singing you my songs I'll sing 'em 'til my voice is gone Then you put a record on You put my favorite record on You know I wanna sing along I know the beating of your heart Like the beat of a drum The beating of my head against the wall after you leave Before you come Lik the captain's clock What I wanted from you Wasn't what I got from you Now all I got are thoughts of you So I put them in my dresser drawer I put on a shirt you wore And try to put my best foot forward I know the beating of your heart Like the beat of a drum The beating of my head against the wall after you leave Before you come I know the beating of your heart Like the beat of a drum The beating of my head against the wall after you leave Before you come Like the captain's clock in the belly of the croc The captain's clock in the belly of the croc Do you wanna take a trip with me To Mexico or Tenerife? I wanna lie on a beach Do you wanna take a trip with me Up to the roof, down to the street Who's gonna hold my hand, who’s gonna shoe my feet? If you find somebody new I won't weep or mourn for you I'll hold my head up high to prove That one is indivisible by two And I'm invisible to you
