Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Moving clocks run so slow
I can't take my eyes off you
There's too many hands to keep my eyes on
[Verse 2]
Looking towards the light
Look a little tongue-tied
Sounds a little cross-eyes
[Verse 3]
The fast approaching midnight
We're looked out
We're fast approaching midnight
[Verse 4]
So, you know you take a little me
And I take a little you
We're all part of the century
[Verse 5]
Hold me down now, hold me down
A bitter disappointment
And I was restless, I was restless
You're winning me over
You're winning me over
Can't take my eyes off you
There's too many hands to keep my eyes on
[Verse 6]
The fast approaching midnight
We're looked out
We're fast approaching midnight (Whoa)
[Verse 7]
So, you take a little me
And I take a little you
We're all part of the century
