Tik Tok Clock (Wasted Times) - LYRICS -



[Verse 1]
I was twenty-two with a ring in my hand
Standing nervous in that jewelry store
Thought I knew exactly what I wanted then
Didn't even let six months pass before

[Chorus]
Tick tock goes the clock on the wall
I should've let more time fall
Quick quick, that's what my heart said
Now I'm sleeping in an empty bed
'Cause love ain't meant to rush
But damn, I couldn't wait
Should've watched it tick a little longer
Before I sealed my fate

[Verse 2]
Signed the papers down at city hall
Her daddy tried to tell me to slow down
But I was young and thought I knew it all
Now I'm paying alimony in this damn town

[Chorus]
Tick tock goes the clock on the wall
I should've let more time fall
Quick quick, that's what my heart said
Now I'm sleeping in an empty bed
'Cause love ain't meant to rush
But damn, I couldn't wait
Should've watched it tick a little longer
Before I sealed my fate

[Bridge]
An old man told me once
"Son, true love takes its sweet time"
But I was too damn young to listen
Now I'm older and I know he was right

[Solo]
[Twangy guitar solo over chord progression]

[Verse 3]
These divorce papers on my table now
Are teaching me the hardest kind of truth
Sometimes the wisest thing to do is wait
But that's a lesson wasted on my youth

[Chorus]
Tick tock goes the clock on the wall
I should've let more time fall
Quick quick, that's what my heart said
Now I'm sleeping in an empty bed
'Cause love ain't meant to rush
But damn, I couldn't wait
Should've watched it tick a little longer
Before I sealed my fate
