THE KOOKS
"Tick Of Time"
(Luke Pritchard)

It's far too early in the morning,
To be trying to call you
And far too early in the daytime,
To be thinking about that
But I, But I, But I am

What did I do in a past life,
Oh to deserve this?
Yeah the way I make myself
He's far too innocent to be a part of
Such a cruel world
And it is, and it is, and it is

So I'll go, yes I'll go
So I'll take that train and ride
Hoping I could write her a rhyme,
That might stop the tick of time
Get off this situation and feel fine
Get off this situation and feel fine

What did I do to deserve her love?
I have to ask myself,
When I am such a bad man
But only to her, only to her, only to her

So I'll go, yes I'll go
So I'll take that train and ride
So I'll go, yes I'll go
So I'll take that train and ride
Wishing, hoping I could write her a rhyme,
That might stop the tick of time
Get off this situation and feel fine
Get off this situation and feel fine
