I'm watching my watch it's a heartache after ten
And I'm wondering if and when you will call
I'm watching the door open hoping you'll come walking through
As I tell my troubles to the four walls

The hands of my watch slowly move and I cry
For time and romance are passing me by
I'm watching my watch every second seems to say
Silly fool you'll learn before this day goes on
That the one who stole your heart away is gone

[ piano ]

The hands of my watch slowly move and I cry
Watching my watch watching my watch watching my watch
