Sleepless

Tick tock
goes the clock
counting the hours
I've been thinking of you.

I close my eyes
and stay wide awake
hoping at any moment
I'll fade away.

Tick tock
goes the clock
counting the hours
I've been thinking of you.

You accupy my mind
and linger in my thoughts
afraid to sleep tonight
for fear of tomarrow.

Tick tock
goes the clock
counting the hours
I've been thinking of you.

I sit and write
untill morning comes
now I can sleep
all is said my day is done.

Tick tock
goes the clock
counting the hours
I've been thinking of you.
