[00:02.36] as I shower and shave
[00:05.38] night is growing old
[00:08.88] as I recount my days
[00:10.83] you simply count
[00:13.96] and coldly mark time
[00:21.12]
[00:22.75] this performance in fact
[00:25.51] last, and sweetly in vain
[00:32.17] so human, dressed and packed
[00:36.12]
[00:37.62] let me entertain you
[00:40.38]
[00:41.25] one more time
[00:50.41]
[01:05.84] you watch it turn
[01:07.36] from dark to dawn
[01:09.79]
[01:11.13] you don't seem
[01:12.06] to need much sleep
[01:14.25]
[01:17.01] you're unconcerned
[01:18.69] day is breaking like a wave
[01:22.48]
[01:25.35] and the water's much too deep
[01:28.93]
[01:40.72] more faithful still
[01:43.28] than God or man
[01:44.72]
[01:45.96] quietly you're
[01:47.27] clocking me
[01:49.20]
[01:51.20] ordained to fill
[01:53.51] a baneful hourglass
[01:56.52]
[01:57.58] without pause and without grief
[02:08.43]
[02:14.03] if Heaven can wait
[02:16.79] talk to Fate
[02:18.18] give me just
[02:20.11] one more day
[02:25.26]
[02:25.82] as you attend
[02:27.89] won't you please
[02:29.72] won't you bend
[02:31.78] won't you stay
[02:34.45]
[02:35.07] this breach
[02:35.82]
[02:37.19] this gold
[02:38.44] to airy thinness beat
[02:46.46]
[02:56.25] you watch it turn
[02:57.75] from dark to dawn
[03:01.39] eyes and lips and hands
[03:06.10]
[03:07.97] I forsake
[03:08.90] you will endure
[03:09.72] long after we are gone
[03:13.80] and these hearts and this wave
[03:18.93] will break
[03:22.46]
[03:33.18]
[04:39.48] if Heaven can wait
[05:04.50] talk to Fate
[05:08.97]
[05:21.54] give me just
[05:24.91] one more day
[05:27.17] as you attend
[05:27.91] won't you please
[05:33.22] won't you bend
[05:34.47] won't you stay
[05:35.21] this breach
[05:35.66] this gold
[05:36.09] to airy thinness beat
[05:38.73] you watch it turn
[05:39.60] from dark to dawn
[05:40.28] eyes and lips and hands
[05:43.65] I forsake
[05:49.92] you will endure
[05:50.48] long after we are gone
[05:53.00] and these hearts and this wave
[05:56.91] will break
[05:59.96] if Heaven can wait
[06:02.04] talk to Fate
[06:02.72] give me just
[06:03.72] one more day
[06:11.01] as you attend
[06:12.57] won't you please
[06:18.41] won't you bend
[06:21.04] won't you stay
[06:24.18] this breach
[06:30.70] this gold
[06:31.65] to airy thinness beat
[06:36.82] you watch it turn
[06:38.07] from dark to dawn
[06:42.56] eyes and lips and hands
[06:47.32] I forsake
[06:49.65]
[06:54.85] you will endure
[06:58.80] long after we are gone
[07:04.50] and these hearts and this wave
[07:08.93] will break
