It begins with the turning of a key Barreled springs torque up and come to life, demanding loyalty from the gears and levers above them The pendulum is set in motion moving in a seeming perpetual arc it's steady beat whittling away at our lives Measuring the rhythm of our hearts and the expansion of our lungs Chiseling away fragments of the time we share together These precious hours we spend in sweet embraces knowing we must surrender to its beckoning call at the strike of our final hour What then, my love, if we threw away the key? What then my love, would become of you and me? ...just bein' Bluesy |
