I sit and watch the clock.
Thoughts of you run through my mind.
I want to be near you.
I want to hear your voice.
Time goes by faster.
The rain pours down outside.
Nothing stops.
Life keeps going.
I know you'll be back soon.
Not as soon as I wish.
I sit and watch the clock.
I try to collect my thoughts.
