...Like Clockwork

Everyone, it seems, has somewhere to go And the faster the world spins The shorter the lights will glow And I'm swimming in the night Chasing down the moon The deeper in the water The more I long for you And most of what you see, my dear, is purely for show Because not everything that goes around comes back around, you know Holding on too long is just a fear of letting go Because not everything that goes around comes back around, you know One thing that is clear It's all down hill from here The love line in your hand Cleverly disguised All the promises of stone Crumble in the light Most of what you see, my dear, is worth lettin' go Because not everything that goes around comes back around, you know Holding on too long is just a fear of wanting to show Because not everything that goes around comes back around, you know Not everything that goes around comes back around, you know One thing that is clear It's all down hill from here Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh
