Lyrics

[00:00.52] Tick Tock
[00:06.52] Lemar
[00:09.02]
[00:12.21] I gotta leave again
[00:13.71] I don't wanna go
[00:15.00] Things can be so lonely on the road
[00:18.50] Could be the presidential suite
[00:20.34] But nothing's ever like your bed at home
[00:24.28] Especially when your'e away from the one you love
[00:30.61] It gets tough
[00:32.02]
[00:32.83] Even though it hurts when i'm off at work
[00:37.29] Looking at her picture soothes my pain
[00:40.45] And for a moment I, find myself right back at home again
[00:45.30] I remember, through the ups and the downs of my day
[00:52.31] I can say,
[00:54.81] My baby will be..
[00:56.38]
[00:56.69] Sitting, waiting, longing,
[01:00.43] Holding on for me
[01:02.37] While the time goes tick tock tick tock
[01:06.15] My baby will be
[01:07.52] Sitting, waiting, longing,
[01:10.81] Holding on for me
[01:13.45] While the time goes tick tock tick tock
[01:17.15]
[01:17.78] She's gotta leave again
[01:19.84] She don't wanna go
[01:21.26] Hates to be away from me so long
[01:24.58] She calls me everyday but
[01:27.01] She can't kiss her baby on the phone
[01:30.39] When we're hanging up
[01:32.09] The tears start rolling down
[01:36.68] But somehow
[01:38.75] oooooooooooo
[01:40.53]
[01:40.77] Even though she cries
[01:42.12] She can find her smile
[01:43.34] Cos she knows with me her heart is safe
[01:46.78] Funny how time away,
[01:48.22] Makes a loving heart grow fond again
[01:52.48] She remembers,
[01:53.73] Through the ups and the downs of her day
[01:58.03] She can say,
[02:00.35] Oh that i'll be...
[02:02.69]
[02:02.91] Sitting, waiting, longing,
[02:06.63] Holding on for her
[02:08.62] While the time goes tick tock tick tock
[02:12.31] Her baby will be
[02:13.70] Sitting, waiting, longing,
[02:16.90] Holding on for her
[02:19.69] While the time goes tick tock tick tock
[02:22.71]
[02:23.36] Oh, we remember,
[02:26.91] Through the ups and downs of our days
[02:31.82] We can say,
[02:34.16] Oh that we'll be
[02:35.89]
[02:36.10] Sitting, waiting, longing,
[02:38.96] Holding on for love
[02:41.72] While the time goes tick tock tick tock
[02:45.44] Oh we will be
[02:46.81] Sitting, waiting, longing,
[02:50.19] Holding on for love
[02:52.73] While the time goes tick tock tick tock
[02:57.13]
[02:57.85] Sitting, waiting, longing,
[03:01.98] Holding on for love
[03:03.17] Sitting, waiting, longing,
[03:07.38] Oh we will be
[03:08.83] Sitting, waiting, longing,
[03:13.38] 'Til she comes home to me
[03:16.77]
