“Clockwork” is the first song on A Matter of Time. Laufey started teasing the song when she posted the “tick tock goes the clock” audio to TikTok. Spencer Stewart also teased the song on an Instagram story of Junia, Laufey’s twin sister, playing the violin which can be heard at the end of the track....
[Intro]
Ding, dong
Ding, dong
Ding, dong
[Verse 1]
Swore I'd never do this again
Think that I'm so clever, I could date a friend
He just called me, said he's runnin' late
Like me, he probably had to regurgitate
I know it's irrational, at least I'm self-aware
I'm shivering, maybe I'll stay home, oh shit, he's here
[Chorus]
My head's a wild place, I've considered every way
Words I'll forget, deeply regret, he'll run away
And nothing brings me fear like meeting with my destiny
But like clockwork, think he fell in love with me
[Post-Chorus]
Ding, dong
Ding, dong
Ding, dong
[Verse 2]
Now we're drinking, caught in fight or flight
I think I might be loving this romantic night
Damn, he's smiling, starin' back at me
We're at the arcade, think it's going perfectly
I know I'm dramatic, but I caved in at his touch
I want him forever, oh my God, I've said too much
[Chorus]
My head's a wild place, I've considered every way
Words I'll forget, deeply regret, I'll run away
And nothing brings me fear like meeting with my destiny
But good God, I think he fell in love
Tick, tock, and I fell in love too
Like clockwork, I fell in love with you
[Post-Chorus]
Ding, dong
Ding, dong
Ding, dong
