Stornoway - Waiting on the clock lyrics
[Stornoway - Waiting on the clock lyrics]
I was just a boy and you were still a girl
In the reckless freedom of our newfound world
I made you a tape of all my favourite tunes
One headphone for me and
One headphone for you
And each night, i'd go working in the cafe
All night, i'd be waiting on the clock to say
Midnight, i'd go running round
To worcester place heart thumping as i climb
The spiral staircase
Your college room was freezing
In that winter break
And so we stayed in bed for
Two whole nights and days
You said you'd eat my goldfish
You were so hungry
So on our shaking knees we went to try sushi
And each night, i went working in the cafe
All night, i'd be waiting on the clock to say
Midnight, i'd go running round
To worcester place heart thumping as i climb
The spiral staircase
And each night, i'd go working in the cafe
All night, i'd be waiting on the clock to say
Midnight, i'd go running round
To worcester place heart thumping as i climb
The spiral staircase
Half twelve, and i'm standing in your doorway
Half-scared, wondering what the hell
You're gonna say
Half-drunk, so i'm gonna tell you anyway
In the reckless freedom of our newfound world
I made you a tape of all my favourite tunes
One headphone for me and
One headphone for you
And each night, i'd go working in the cafe
All night, i'd be waiting on the clock to say
Midnight, i'd go running round
To worcester place heart thumping as i climb
The spiral staircase
Your college room was freezing
In that winter break
And so we stayed in bed for
Two whole nights and days
You said you'd eat my goldfish
You were so hungry
So on our shaking knees we went to try sushi
And each night, i went working in the cafe
All night, i'd be waiting on the clock to say
Midnight, i'd go running round
To worcester place heart thumping as i climb
The spiral staircase
And each night, i'd go working in the cafe
All night, i'd be waiting on the clock to say
Midnight, i'd go running round
To worcester place heart thumping as i climb
The spiral staircase
Half twelve, and i'm standing in your doorway
Half-scared, wondering what the hell
You're gonna say
Half-drunk, so i'm gonna tell you anyway
