Like Clockwork, Little Happiness Lyrics

Like clockwork, little happiness,
Like clockwork, little happiness

You'll have to excuse me if I'm quiet today
Made something out of nothing but I don't want to say
You smiled when you saw me, stood aside and let me in
So much to talk over, but where to begin?

I don't want to tell you if you don't know what's wrong
Your heart's not been in this, I've known all along
For the sake of our friendship, I hope it will last,
We need to see this through

I doubt that you'll listen when I tell you the truth
You're too self-possessed, but that's up to you
I tried to accept this, allow you the space,
You're too quiet to notice to allow me such grace

I put in all the effort just to keep you appeased
We need to start over, to spread and release
Realizing ambition on our own separate paths
I think we've seen this through
