THE CLOCK RUNS BACKWARDS
© Words and Music: Jim Fuhrman/ Donna Aylor


Time flew so fast with you in my arms
All tangled up with love in my first car
Our Senior year we made plans to leave home
‘n I got restless ‘n left you at the bus stop all alone

CHORUS
NOW THE CLOCK RUNS BACKWARDS CUZ YOU''RE NOT AROUND
EV''RY SECOND MY HEART REMINDS ME I LET YOU DOWN
THE TICKING OF TIME IS THE LONELIEST SOUND
NOW THE CLOCK RUNS BACKWARDS CUZ YOU''RE NOT AROUND

I can’t love anyone else Lord knows I''ve tried
Ghost of old feelings keep me torn up inside
Forgive my hurtful words I’ll take the blame
Freedom meant so much I was too wild to tame

REPEAT CHORUS

BRIDGE
You have every right to say “I told you so"
But I’m dialin’ your number and prayin’ you’re home…

REPEAT CHORUS
