Lyrics

The clock on the wall stopped moving
Somewhere around eleven
We never fixed it, you and me
It looks like a little heaven
We dance across the kitchen
In our socks on the floor
Nobody counts the minutes
Nobody wants more

Slow, slow
Hold me slow

Slow hands on a stopped clock
Take your time with me
Slow hands on a stopped clock
That is how we'll be
No place to go, no hurry now
Just the two of us
Slow hands on a stopped clock
That's enough

The rain is on the window
The kettle's gone to sing
The light is soft and yellow
And you're my everything
I rest my head against you
And I hear your heart keep time
So who needs a working clock
When your heartbeat's mine

Slow, slow
Hold me slow

Slow hands on a stopped clock
Take your time with me
Slow hands on a stopped clock
That is how we'll be
No place to go, no hurry now
Just the two of us
Slow hands on a stopped clock
That's enough

Stay
Stay a while
Stay

Slow hands on a stopped clock
Take your time with me
Slow hands on a stopped clock
That is how we'll be
No place to go, no hurry now
Just the two of us
Slow hands on a stopped clock
That's enough

Slow hands
Stopped clock
That's enough
