Not a Second to Waste

I'm checking your pulse

I'm giving you air

But your body disagrees

And no it don't care at all

I'm wasting my time

Now your eyes roll awake

You're looking at me

You said, "Darling what happened

Did I fall asleep?"

And you carry me home

'Cause I know I wasn't here

I'm closing your blinds

I'm shutting your eyes

And now I'm afraid I have to go

Whoa, oh-oh-oh

And I'd sing you a song

But I'm feeling quite off in my heart

It's occupied

And now's not the time

Let's try this again

And this time don't laugh

'Cause I'm working on my sentences

I'm working on my play on words

I'll get it this time

If I am a clock

Then you are the time

I'm patiently waiting and you're out of line

And I'll be the question

If you'll be the answer

I'm closing your blinds

I'm shutting your eyes

And now I'm afraid I have to go

Whoa, oh-oh-oh

And I'd sing you a song

But I'm feeling quite off in my heart

It's occupied

And now's not the time

If I am a clock

Then you are the time

I'm patiently waiting and you're out of line

I'm counting the times you lied to my face

My hands were full, not a second to waste

If I am a clock

Then you are the time

I'm patiently waiting and you're out of line

I'm counting the times you lied to my face

My hands were full, not a second to waste

I'm closing your blinds

I'm shutting your eyes

And now I'm afraid I have to go

Whoa, oh-oh-oh

And I'd sing you a song

But I'm feeling quite off in my heart

It's occupied

And now's not the time

The time
