[Verse 1]
Can you hold back the tide
(Or are you here for the ride)
Is it only a matter of moments
(Until we feel the movements)
[Bridge]
The times keep moving on
(The present proving gone)
[Chorus]
As time keeps on ticking
(Tick-tock, tick-tock)
Only the past keeps sticking
(Just check your clock)
[Verse 2]
Can you impede time’s flow
(Change the direction that we go)
Is it only a matter of moments
(Until we feel the movements)
[Bridge]
The times keep moving on
(The present proving gone)
[Chorus]
As time keeps on ticking
(Tick-tock, tick-tock)
Only the past keeps sticking
(Just check your clock)
[Outro]
As time keeps on ticking
(Let the thoughts start clicking)
For sure ensure there’s future
(And the tick-tock of man’s clock)
