My grandfather＇s clock |
| [00:17.240] |
Was too large for the shelf |
| [00:20.100] |
So it stood ninety years on the floor |
| [00:26.500] |
It was taller by half |
| [00:28.850] |
Than the old man himself |
| [00:31.710] |
Though it weighed not a pennyweight more |
| [00:37.230] |
|
| [00:37.620] |
It was bought on the morn |
| [00:40.470] |
Of the day that he was born |
| [00:43.460] |
And was always his treasure and pride |
| [00:49.320] |
But it stopped short |
| [00:52.930] |
Never to go again |
| [00:55.140] |
When the old man died |
| [01:00.570] |
|
| [01:00.960] |
Ninety years without slumbering |
| [01:04.599] |
Tick, tock, tick, tock |
| [01:07.230] |
His life seconds numbering |
| [01:10.400] |
Tick, tock, tick, tock |
| [01:13.600] |
It stopped short |
| [01:16.150] |
Never to go again |
| [01:18.480] |
When the old man died |
| [01:23.750] |
|
| [01:24.310] |
It watching its pendulum |
| [01:27.940] |
Swing to and fro |
| [01:30.600] |
Many hours had he spent while a boy |
| [01:35.950] |
And in childhood and manhood |
| [01:39.210] |
The clock seemed to know |
| [01:41.740] |
And to share both his grief and his joy |
| [01:47.200] |
|
| [01:47.610] |
For it struck twenty-four |
| [01:50.500] |
When he entered at the door |
| [01:53.440] |
With a blooming and beautiful bride |
| [01:59.229] |
But it stopped short |
| [02:02.860] |
Never to go again |
| [02:05.600] |
When the old man died |
| [02:12.590] |
|
| [02:42.990] |
For it struck twenty-four |
| [02:45.910] |
When he entered at the door |
| [02:48.810] |
With a blooming and beautiful bride |
| [02:54.710] |
But it stopped short |
| [02:58.290] |
Never to go again |
| [03:00.510] |
When the old man died |
| [03:05.760] |
|
| [03:06.340] |
It rang an alarm |
| [03:09.220] |
In the dead of the night |
| [03:12.200] |
An alarm that for years had been dumb |
| [03:17.980] |
And we knew that his spirit |
| [03:20.870] |
Was pluming for flight |
| [03:23.829] |
That his hour of departure had come |
| [03:29.150] |
|
| [03:29.640] |
Still the clock kept the time |
| [03:32.520] |
With a soft and muffled chime |
| [03:35.460] |
As we silently stood by his side |
| [03:41.340] |
But it stopped short |
| [03:44.900] |
Never to go again |
| [03:47.140] |
When the old man died |
| [03:52.460] |
|
| [03:53.300] |
Ninety years without slumbering |
| [03:56.610] |
Tick, tock, tick, tock |
| [03:59.220] |
His life seconds numbering |
| [04:02.390] |
Tick, tock, tick, tock |
| [04:05.200] |
It stopped short |
| [04:08.180] |
Never to go again |
| [04:10.440] |
When the old man died |
| [04:16.680] |
It stopped short |
| [04:19.910] |
Never to go again |
| [04:27.100] |
When the old man died |
