When I was young I went by myy watch
When you were young you went by the clocked
One of us ticked and one of us tocked
Digital versus analog
Which explains why our timing was off
Then came the days when it took all I had
Just to get myself out of bed
Under the sheets I felt at peace
Safe from the world reminding me
That I was alone
Remind me I was alone
I had been talking
With a forked tongue
Alone I'd been walking for so long
You tracked me down you grabbed my hand
Said "Can I take you home?"
Then came the days when it took all I had
Just to get myself out of bed
Under the sheets I felt at peace
Safe with you there lying next to me
You remind me I wasn't alone
Remind me I wasn't alone
I had been talking
With a forked tongue
Alone I'd been walking for so long
You tracked me down you grabbed my hand
Said "Can I take you home?"
Then came the day when the power went out
Then came the day when the clocks stopped
You remind me I didn't have to feel alone
Then came the day when I straightened my tongue
Then came the day when I our timing was on
And you asked me "Can I take you home?"
And you asked me "Can I take you home?"
And you asked me "Can I take you home?"
And you asked me "Can I take you home?"
