| 作词 : Stewart | |
| I once had a qilded clock | |
| Constructed in la Belle Epoque | |
| The hour hand broke, now it won't turn back | |
| So long, so long, so long | |
| I once had a sundial too | |
| But green and wild my garden grew | |
| The undergrowth obscured the view | |
| So long, so long, so long | |
| Not a word could make her stay | |
| The East wind blows the sun away | |
| Oh I lost her on St. Swithin's day | |
| Oh why? | |
| I grew up in a house of clocks | |
| And late at night I'd sometimes walk | |
| Listening to their rhythmic talk | |
| So long, so long, so long | |
| Clocks that sand in ringing chimes | |
| To take the measure of the times | |
| Clocks that spoke in wordless rhymes, | |
| So long, so long , so long | |
| Not a word could make her stay | |
| The wine is spilt and flows away | |
| I lost her on St. Swithin's day | |
| Oh why? |
