I stand alone and watch the clock I only wait for it to stop And in the room locked up inside me The cutout magazines remind me Yazoo I sit and wait alone in my room And in my room against the wall There is a picture very small A photograph I took some years ago It shows a picture of the room I know I sit and wait alone in my room The walls are white and in the night The room is lit by electric light I stand alone and watch the clock I only wait for it to stop The doors are shut and all the windows lock The only sound is from the clock I sit and wait alone in my room Repeat chorus
