Josh Homme
...Like Clockwork
[Verse 1]
Everyone, it seems, has somewhere to go
And the faster the world spins, the shorter the lights will glow
And I'm swimming in the night, chasing down the moon
The deeper in the water, the more I long for you
[Chorus 1]
And most of what you see, my dear, is purely for show
Because not everything that goes around comes back around, you know
Holdin' on too long is just a fear of letting go
Because not everything that goes around comes back around, you know
One thing that is clear, it's all downhill from here
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 2]
The love line in your hand, cleverly disguised
All the promises of stone crumble in the light
[Chorus 2]
Most of what you see, my dear, is worth letting go
Because not everything that goes around comes back around, you know
Holdin' on too long is just a fear of what to show
Because not everything that goes around comes back around, you know
Not everything that goes around comes back around, you know
One thing that is clear, it's all downhill from here
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
