I looked at the face of the clock on the wall.
And it doesn't tell me nothing at all.
That face of the clock just stares at me.
It knows I'm lonely and always will be.
I want to cry my heart out.
Want my baby back with me.
Got nothing but time to step out.
But time means nothing to me.
If you hear me, please come back real soon.

'Cause the clock and I are so lonely in this room.
And it doesn't tell me nothing at all.
