Through this snow we fall winter standing tall Like a blanket she cloaks this indifference So I cover my eyes to the sight of your recall
Trees in white remain, dressed to cover shame As I stand here in beautiful symmetry A chill hurries over as if to place the blame
And tick tock sing the clocks I've been waiting for hours for you Swing swing pendulum I'm still trying so hard to get through And how we all fall down
Hedgerow dark disguise, Evensong abide And I'm wishing away this absurdity Sing loudly and pray to the song of compromise, no lies And tick tock sing the clocks I've been waiting for hours for you Swing swing pendulum I'm still trying so hard to get through to you And how we all fall down And ring this rose around, there's no sound
Clocks keep turning round Clocks keep turning round round round round Through this snow we fall blinded by it all As I stand here in beautiful symmetry A chill hurries over as if to place the blame And tick tock sing the clocks I've been waiting for hours for you Swing swing pendulum I'm still trying so hard to get through And tick tock sing the clocks I've been waiting for hours for you Swing swing pendulum I'm still trying so hard to get through to you Clocks keep turning round Clocks keep turning round round round round Clocks keep turning round Clocks keep turning round round round round
