StartFragmentThe clock ticks one, And all is gone, Bade farewell to the wave of the sea; I could not fathom the pull from the sand. The clock ticks one, And all is gone, The metal bird flew with my heart away; I could not fathom the smoke that turns the sky to grey. The clock ticks one, And all is gone, Here, I go back down the road. I could not fathom retracing the footsteps I used to know. The clock ticks one, And all is gone, My dear, it's gone and - I could not fathom, it has been long gone. The clock ticks one, And all is gone, Even if the waves again touch the skirts of land, My dear, it's gone and - I could not fathom, it has been long gone, Even before I could admit That I was long beat. It was gone. Yes, dear, it's finally gone.
