lyrics

Lyrics:
A cloud passed under the sun
And I watched the hair on your arms
As the stood straight up
They looked like arrows drawn

We might, die tonight
But we won’t look back
We might, die tonight
But this train’s on track

There ain’t no crystal ball
Foresees our future’s path
It’s best not to get all involved
With things that aren’t meant to last

And it was a grand design
Built for you and I

We might, die tonight
But we won’t look back
We might, die tonight
But this train’s on track

Don’t blame the candle you hold
For lighting up the dark
Noah didn’t really have a choice
He had to build the ark!

So if you want more time
Better build a clock

Here the chimes singing tick, tick, tick, tick, tock
