Lyrics We Were Promised Jetpacks

We Were Promised Jetpacks

Moving Clocks Run Slow

Moving clocks run so slow

I can't take my eyes off you

There's too many hands

To keep my eye on

Looking towards the light

Look a little cross-eyed

Sounds a little tongue-tied

The fast approaching midnight

We're locked out

The fast approaching midnight

So, you know, you take a little me

And I take a little you

We're all part of the century

So hold me down now, hold me down

A bitter disappointment

And I was restless, I was restless

You're winning me over

You're winning me over

Can't take my eyes off you

There's too many hands

To keep my eye on

The fast approaching midnight

We're locked out

The fast approaching midnight

So, you know, you take a little me

And I take a little you

We're all part of the century
