The Watchmaker

[Verse 1]
I’m just a dog with a guitar
But you’re a match without a spark
And while my road’s in the dead of night
At least my song will turn back on the light
I’m just a dream (I’m just a dream)
Of someone else
While she’s a girl who’s lost herself
And though one day this spell may complete (This spell may complete)
There’s not an ending to her sleep

[Bridge]
And we’re all traveling, traveling
Down this spiral
But big bangs turn into universes
Every end’s a new beginning!

[Chorus]
Ahh, ohh!
Oh, I could be a watchmaker!
And then time can’t hold us back, oh!
Ahh, ohh!
And you could be the heart-breaker!
So that time won’t seem so lonely on my...
Own!

[Verse 2]
I’m just a dog with a guitar
But he’s a tin man who’s lost his heart (Hooo-ooh)
And though my sun may set all too fast
Without love, I don’t wanna be be built to last!
I’m just a dream of someone else
But you’re a toy, forgotten on the shelf (Hooo-ooh)
Ticking away in a blizzard of dust
There’s not a soul left you can trust!

[Bridge]
And we’re all rambling, rambling
Like a choir
But if truth, that woman’s the daughter of time
I’d live on a clock if she could be mine!

[Chorus]
Ahh, ohh!
Oh, I could be a watchmaker!
And then time can’t hold us back, oh!
Ahh, ohh!
And you could be my heart-breaker!
So that time won’t seem so lonely on my own!
Ahh, ohh!
On my own!
Ahh, ohh!
On my own!
Ahh, ohh!
On my own!

[Breakdown]
I’m just a dog (just a dog) with a guitar
Like every poet left in the dark (In the dark)
I’ll bury every clock to pretend (Bury every clock)
Back covers never mean the end...
(The end is...)

[Chorus]
Woah, ohhh!
Oh, I could be a watchmaker!
So that time can’t hold us back, oh!
Ahh, ohh!
And you could be my heart-breaker!
So that tme won’t seem so lonely on my own!

[Outro]
I’m just a dog with a guitar
Like every poet left in the dark
I’ll bury every clock to pretend
Back covers never mean the end...
