(Tick-tock, listen to the clock)

(Tick-tock, listen to the clock)



What time is it?

I've just got to know

What time is it? (It's five o'clock)

Three more hours to go

Till I hold her in my arms

And tell her that I want her for my own



(Tick-tock, tick-tock)

(Tick-tock, listen to the clock)

(Tick-tock, listen to the clock)



What time is it?

Tell me once again

What time is it? (It's six o'clock)

Two more hours and then

I will kiss her sweet lips

While the magic of the moonlight makes her mine



(Tick-tock, tick-tock, better hurry up)

And put my tie on

(Better hurry up)

It's almost time



(Tick-tock, listen to the clock)

(Tick-tock, listen to the clock)



What time is it? (It's seven o'clock)

Just one hour more

What time is it? (It's eight o'clock)

Now I'm at her door

And my heart is beating fast

The moment's here at last



What time is it? (It's time for love)
