[Verse 1]

When it's time for me to go, I hope my job is done

I hope that people know that I've never tried to run

Yeah, and when it came to lovin' you, I only did my best

And I hope it was enough for you to rest

[Verse 2]

Never did I tell you just how deeply I did feel

Fear was holding me too close, afraid that it was real

Yeah, and if I looked you in the eye, I don't know if I could

For the sake of knowing that I really should

[Chorus]

Oh, the clock don't tell time, it runs

The heart don't beat, it shatters

The only thing in this old world is lovin' you

That matters

[Verse 3]

Yeah, if I never see your face, I'll know that it is time

To pass into another place, where other things are mine

Cause if I can't be in your arms, there's nothing for me here

And my only wish is that I'll hold you there

[Chorus]

Oh, the clock don't tell time, it runs

The heart don't beat, it shatters

The only thing in this old world is lovin' you

That matters

[Instrumental]

[Chorus]

Oh, the clock don't tell time, it runs

The heart don't beat, it shatters

The only thing in this old world is lovin' you

Is lovin' you

That matters
