Hear the midnight ring
Loud echoes on the walls
Two hundred years have been
And still those seconds fall
Good deeds and noble skills
Repair the true design
Chorus:
Makerâs rhyme, running through time
Makerâs rhyme, running through the hands of time
He wound up every face
Precision was his pride
One love he would embrace
But fear was locked inside
Long hours they roll away
The tools of minutes wind
Chorus:
A spring was in her stride
She never missed a beat
All order in those eyes
Such sure steady feet
A thousand clocks to fix
The one that fell behind
Chorus:
When he stopped to hold her hand
In seconds it was clear
A wild and worthy man
Had loved all these years
The clicks of ticking wheels
The cogs of beaten pride
Chorus:
Now his only motions made
Are constant in their sound
On a mantelpiece, his name engraved
To mark the love he found
This pendulum of peace
Now faithful in this life
