The men

Stop the clock

The men
The old grey man, plays with the kids.
Remembers the time, when time it was his.
When they were the law, the law of the gun.
Life on the edge meant danger but fun.
No cares for tomorrow, no thoughts of the past,
Memories bring sorrow, they're all that will last.

If only we could stop.
If only we could stop.

(Chorus )
Stop the clock, I want to get off.
It's gone too fast, I can't get enough.
Press on the break, anchor away.
The rest of eternity for one long endless day.

The lonely old lady, now trembles along.
Words on her lips, a tune faded song.
She was a stunner, a real tear away,
Young men fell for her, she blew them away,
Life was exciting, she lived it, and how!
Time slipped from her, just look at her now.

If only we could stop.
If only we could stop.

(Chorus)

The wheelchair bound man, being pushed along.
All self-esteem now seems to have gone.
He was a warrior, for country and king.
Defending the empire, he'd seen everything.
Meddled and demobbed, then left in the cold.
No longer needed, for now he's too old.

If only we could stop.
If only we could stop.

(Chorus)

If only we could stop. No thoughts of the past.
If only we could stop. They're all that will last.
If only we could stop. I want to get off.
If only we could stop. I can't get enough.
If only we could stop. Anchor away.
If only we could stop. For one endless day.

If only we could stop.
If only we could stop.
