歌词
[Intro] [Verse] Lamplight hits the brass Sipping from my glass The shop is closed for good Exactly where I stood The dust begins to settle On every piece of metal [Pre-Chorus] Nineteen-twenty-four Left beside the door Engraving on the back Lost along the track [Chorus] Tick-tock, let it swing The weight of everything A rhythm in my hand Across this quiet land Waiting for a ghost The one I miss the most [Verse] The rye is burning slow In the golden glow Tiny springs and gears Holding back the years I fix the broken parts Of heavy, hollow hearts [Chorus] Tick-tock, let it swing The weight of everything A rhythm in my hand Across this quiet land Waiting for a ghost The one I miss the most [Bridge] The flugelhorn is crying While the day is dying I wind the mainspring tight To face the lonely night The celesta starts to chime Outside of space and time [Verse] A name etched in the gold A story left untold She didn't come back home Now I'm left alone The ticket's turned to grey Another year slips away [Chorus] Tick-tock, let it swing The weight of everything A rhythm in my hand Across this quiet land Waiting for a ghost The one I miss the most [Outro]
