Lyric

Oh, the clocks they all are spinning, in this land of make-believe

With their ticking softly grinning, as the hours take their leave

See the creatures curtsy sweetly, under skies of velvet blue

Every star winks so discreetly, knowing secrets we once knew

Tick-tock, the world is swaying, to the rhythm of the night

Through the haze, the time is straying, with the moon as guiding light

Soft the whispers, faint the chatter of a realm both strange and grand

You and I, we’ll walk together through this tick-tock dreamland

Candy clouds and ribbons flutter, where the topsy turvy tread

Every step a gentle mutter, like a dance on threads of thread

Magic swirls in spiraled motion, making mischief on the breeze

And the world’s in gentle potion, as it bends just as it pleases

A toy piano tinkles bright, while clarinet does croon

Accordion sighs in muted light, to woo the dreaming moon

The upright bass hums low and warm, like clouds that softly steer

Warped and strange, yet holding charm, a joy that melts all fear

Tick-tock, the world is swaying, to the rhythm of the night

Through the haze, the time is straying, with the moon as guiding light

Soft the whispers, faint the chatter of a realm both strange and grand

You and I, we’ll walk together through this tick-tock dreamland

Leave behind the world that’s waking, come and waltz in daffodil skies

In this dream worth never shaking, where no questions ever rise

The rules of reason gently shatter, as the hours slip like sand

Stay awhile, it doesn’t matter, in this tick-tock dreamland
