Scotty Emerick - The Watch lyrics

rate me

I found it in an old cigar box

A timeless treasure my daddy forgot

He put there

A gold face pocket watch

He carried in his old garage

For all those years

And i wounded it up and i helded it up to my ear

And i listened as it ticked away years

And it took me back there in and beneath and old

As he wounded for the hundred time

And spoke this words to me:

He said time

Waits on no one

Like a train

It just goes on

It's more precious than gold

But you can hope

You think it won't run out

But it will

And boy only a woman can make

Time stand still

Well i remembered playing these day

The good lord called in papa away

And how i cried...

Oh it seem like slow motion then

I can't how long spent

Oh he was right

Time does fly

The day i'm gonna tell that

As daddy's words wisdom down the line

The time waits on no one

Like a train

It just goes on

It's more precious than gold

But you can hope

You think it won't run out

But it will

And boy only a woman can make

Time stand still

Yeah he said

Only a woman can make

Time stand still

I found it in an old cigar box

A timeless treasure my daddy forgot

He put there
