The clock is ticking on the table in my room Funny how the time just slips away An ordinary simple man Who's lost a little piece of something Hold my breath and close my eyes Say a little prayer Here we go again, hello I didn't see the end and so the story goes How can I be cool? I always play the fool I need a shot of love Look an arrow through the heart My mind is open to the page of yesterday Isn't it a crime how love can go I always knew there would come a day When silence played the king of pain So I close my eyes and hold my breath And contemplate a change Here we go again, hello I didn't see the end and so the story goes How can I be cool? I always play the fool I need a shot of love Like an arrow through the heart I have my faith in life I know the truth inside This time I swear it's gonna be better
