Time (Clock of the Heart) Lyrics

Don't put your head on my shoulder
Sink me in a river of tears
This could be the best place yet
But you must overcome your fears

Ooh, in time
It could have been so much more
The time is precious I know
In time
It could have been so much more
The time has nothing to show

Because
Time won't give me time
And time makes lovers feel
Like they've got something real
But you and me
We know we've got
Nothin' but time
And time won't give me time
Won't give me time
(Time, time, time)

Don't make me feel any colder
Time is like a clock in my heart
Touch we, touch was the
heat too much
I felt I lost you from the start
5 Meanings

I think this song is about the drummer of the culture club, who Boy George was in love with, and who loved him too, but was confused because he wasnt gay. I believe the first verse is Boy George telling the drummer not to complain to him about how much he loves him but is confused, because this could be a beautiful relationship if he just overcomes his fears. The rest if the song continues from that theme.

@AprilQween

You get a thumbs-up, because I heard this story somewhere else too.

It was breaking George's heart that the drummer wouldn't 'come around' and become openly gay, which sadly for George, wasn't the case. I'm happy to be wrong, but this makes it twice I've read this now.

@AprilQween yes he was in a relationship with Jon Moss who wasn't gay, he was deeply in love with him.

This is blatantly and obviously about how George feels about Marilyn
