Ask The Clock Lyrics

I heard tonight you sweetly whisper in my ear
What was so vague you made it clear
Tonight my wandering spirit turns to you

I heard tonight the meaning of my emptiness
Your words so simple give me rest
You gaze into my eyes
Sing love sing sleep

Ask the clock it always will have it's way
All that's left is memories made
And now I count all the times
You could have been mine

With one single point you drove it
Home
I'll light up in your dark
I'll hug your heavy heart

My heart is at peace chasing the one who made me
I've chased them all I've chased them twice I've missed the mark, fell in the dark. Now I know I'm home

I heard tonight there's still a lot that i must learn
A lot I must give in return
Your wondrous love it beckons me to give

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
