[verse 1]
it's eleven o'clock, i'm in my bed
and i can't get you out my head
the clock strikes one, the street lights dim
but i still picture you with him
at ten past three, i heard a sound
i know it's not you coming round
four minutes pass, they took so long
my bed's been empty now you're gone
[pre-chorus]
and all i'm hearing is
that sound inside my head
[chorus]
(Tick tock tick tock) running through my brain
(Tick tock tick tock) Driving me insane
(Tick tock tick tock) Can't forget your name
(Tick tock tick tock) Will it ever be the same
[verse 2]
i check my watch, it's ten past two
my heart is aching without you
as time ticks by, i start to see
that you're not coming back for me
The days go fast, the night is long
and so i start to write this song
the lights go out, my pen runs dry
so i sit in the dark and cry
[pre-chorus]
and all i'm hearing is
that sound inside my head
[chorus]
(Tick tock tick tock) running through my brain
(Tick tock tick tock) Driving me insane
(Tick tock tick tock) Can't forget your name
(Tick tock tick tock) Will it ever be the same
[bridge]
all day i try to let you go
cause i know you're not coming home
i can't believe it's how it
has to be
the time ticks by with no regret
and i've tried so hard to forget
but i've still got that
sound inside my head
[chorus]
(Tick tock tick tock) running through my brain
(Tick tock tick tock) Driving me insane
(Tick tock tick tock) Can't forget your name
(Tick tock tick tock) Will it ever be the same
[chorus]
(Tick tock tick tock) running through my brain
(Tick tock tick tock) Driving me insane
(Tick tock tick tock) Can't forget your name
(Tick tock tick tock) Will it ever be the same
