I have always needed somebody, girl
But I closed the doors to keep out the world
But for you, I would be here all alone
Locked in a photograph
All of the clocks have run down
Love, beware
We'll be the lovers that never were
I hang patiently on every word you send
And I'll never forget you

Will we ever be much more than just friends?
As for you, you sit there playing this game
You keep me waiting when all of the clocks have run down
All over the world
We'll be the lovers that never were
For as long as the sun shines
In somebody's eyes
I believe in you, baby
So don't tell me lies
For as long as the trees
Go down crossings and leaves
I know there will be
A parade of unpainted dreams
And I know, dear
How much it's gonna hurt
If you still refuse to get your hands dirty
So you
You must tell me something
I love you
Say goodbye or anything
All of the clocks have run down
Time's at an end
We can't be lovers
We'll never be friends
For as long as the sun shines
In somebody's eyes
In somebody's eyes
I believe in you, baby
So don't tell me lies
For as long as the trees
Go down crossings and leaves
I know there will be
A parade of unpainted dreams
Ooh
