Aaron Neville – The Ticks Of The Clock

Between the ticks of the clock and the beats of my heart

It`s about to drive me insane

Oh why she`s never on time

She should have been here since a quarter `til nine

What could be keeping her so long

Well is she in another mans arms

Do we still have our date

I won`t know until it`s too late

Could be my bad luck

Maybe she done stood me up

She thinks that I`m lame

The way she treats me`s a crying shame

Between the ticks of the clock and the beats of my heart

It`s about to drive me insane

Oh why, she haven`t got here yet

She`s the meanest girl I`ve ever met

Could she still be at home

I think I`ll try to call her on the phone

Her Mother answered the phone

And said that she had already gone

I should let her go

But oh, I love her so

She thinks that I`m lame

But the way she treats me`s a crying shame

Between the ticks of the clock and the beats of my heart

It`s about to drive me insane

Oh why she`s never on time

She should have been here since a quarter `til nine

What could be keeping her so long

Oh, is she in another mans arms

Do we still have our date

I won`t know until it`s too late

Could be my bad luck

Maybe she done stood me up

She thinks that I`m lame

The way she treats me`s a crying shame

Between the ticks of the clock and the beats of my heart

It`s about to drive me insane

Between the ticks of the clock and the beats of my heart

It`s about to drive me insane
