Clock on the ceiling (versión 2)

Verse

Four seventeen on the mirror frame

Cigarette burning in the corner flame

City breathing hard outside my door

Every passing minute feels like more

Bassline climbs up through the floor

Your eyes still shining from the strobe light door

I don't want to move, I don't want to leave

Just this last hour stretching out between us and me

Pre-Chorus

Tell me is it over or just begun

Let's keep spinning till the lights come up on everyone

Keep my hand where it was before

Say you're not leaving yet, stay for more

Chorus

Clock on the ceiling keeps running slow

We're still dancing when we know we have to go

Hold this moment till the morning light

Clock on the ceiling, don't let go tonight

Verse 2

Taxi line is building at the door

Your phone's gone flat but you don't need more

Every goodbye feels like it was made for me and you alone

Champagne bubbles turned to ice in the cup

Streetlight flickers red then blue then gold

Strangers moving slow, nobody wants to go home

Your hand still warm where mine once lay

I want to keep this feeling, stay right here tonight

Pre-Chorus

Tell me is it over or just begun

Let's keep spinning till the lights come up on everyone

Keep my hand where it was before

Say you're not leaving yet, stay for more

Chorus

Clock on the ceiling keeps running slow

We're still dancing when we know we have to go

Hold this moment till the morning light

Clock on the ceiling, don't let go tonight

Bridge

Maybe it's not goodbyes, maybe it's just time

Maybe every ending stays a little bit mine

So let's keep counting down these last few bars

This room can stay dark for as long as you'll stare at me

Chorus

Clock on the ceiling keeps running slow

We're still dancing when we know we have to go

Hold this moment till the morning light

Clock on the ceiling, don't let go tonight
