In the early hours of morning
I remember there was you
And I take in every gesture
Every nuance every view

Your tense held breath at loss for words
Chin and lashes hanging low
You wanted more to stay
But it was just the time to go
It was just that time to go

It was hard to make a break
`Cause there was so much love at stake

We watched the hours count down
Watched the minutes count down
Watched the hours count down
Watched the minutes count down

Well the keen observant waitress
Noticed something was askew
She was quiet and concerned
But there was nothing she could do

The air hung thick as we ate our last
Holding hands as I cried
Yet I don't recall a taste other
Than that of love denied
The taste of love denied

It was hard to make a break
`Cause there was so much love at stake

We watched the hours count down
Watched the minutes count down
Watched the hours count down
Watched the minutes count down

The clock struck one struck two
We were late to make amends
We'd tried so hard and stretched so thin
Until the bitter end

I stared hard at the door
Long after you left
Imagining the knob turn
And you bounding back in flesh

But the image was something
I only saw in my head
What's real is what's left of you
Are memories and words unsaid
Words we left unsaid

Well it was hard to make a break
`Cause there was so much love at stake

We watched the hours count down
Watched the minutes count down
Watched the hours count down
Watched the minutes count down

In seconds count down
Count down
Count down
down
down
down
down
