My Heart Is a Time Bomb

Tick tick tick Time slips away
When do I get to see you just name the day
I’ll mark it down so I don’t forget
But if I don’t see you they’ll be a regret 
Do you want that on your conscious it’s such a big load
Hurry up now before I explode

Away from you I can’t keep calm
Because without you my heart is a time bomb
So come take me away you’ve got me by the palm
Because without you my heart is a time bomb

I call the squad they come along with swat
See what you’ve done its been to long apart
They use their instruments to no avail
It’s not helping their just going to fail
Why do you want to tempt fate
Without your love I’ll just obliterate

Away from you I can’t keep calm
Because without you my heart is a time bomb
So come take me away you’ve got me by the palm
Because without you my heart is a time bomb

They gave up and called for an expert
He could tell right away my chest just hurt
What’s the problem why the separation
Only your appearance can prevent detonation
What is his plan what did he figure
Get you here to shut off the trigger

Away from you I can’t keep calm
Because without you my heart is a time bomb
So come take me away you’ve got me by the palm
Because without you my heart is a time bomb

They countdown has started there’s no turning back
You must get out to me before its all black
Hurry up push your way through the crowd
Before were all engulfed in a mushroom cloud
You’re here did my heart just drop
And all at once your touch made the timer stop
