The Originals Vault: Clock On The Wall
I’ll start posting a few of them here over the coming months. This one is a pretty simple love song, but I think it works pretty well.

The clock on the wall keeps ticking away
B7
I have to go but I’d love to stay
Em7
In the dark of night and the light of day
A7
I love you more than “love you” can say
A random meeting, just click and connect
At a time in our lives when we both had to reflect
On what we wanted, the chance to dissect
What’s important in love is total respect
Times rolling on
B7
But we’re taking it slow
Em7
To keep on track
A7
Make this love grow
I can’t believe I’ve been so lucky to find
A woman so tender so loving so kind
A perfect match of heart, body and mind
Our goals, our dreams, our lives entwined
We’re riding the swell, waiting for the wave
To carry us to the spot we both crave
It’s not always easy, we have to be brave
When those around us don’t always behave
And make choices that often seem so wrong
But we’ll hold on to the dream and remain strong
And when we arrive we’ll see it wasn’t that long
To the final place that’s where we belong
