Stop The Clocks

Oasis · Other Songs - Oasis

Stop the clocks and turn your world around

Let your love lay me down

And when the night is over, there'll be no sound



Lock the box and leave it all behind

On the backseat of my mind

And when the night is over, where will I rise?



What if I'm already dead, how would I know?

What if I'm already dead, how would I know?



Lost inside my head behind a wall

Do they hear me when I call?

And when the night is over, where will I fall?

And when the fight is over, where will I fall?



But if I'm already dead, how would I know?

But if I'm already dead, how would I know?



Stop the clocks and turn your world around

Let your love lay me down

And when the night is over, there'll be no sound

And now the night is over, there'll be no sound

And now my fight is over, there'll be no sound
