Here I am all alone.
Stuck in place with a broken clock.
I guess everyone else is busy.
The sound of clocks fills the space around me.
There is no one here, only the sound of the wind.
Blurry and far away, before I knew it you were close.
Somehow I kept thinking it was you.

Everything flew away.
And only you were left standing there.
