My Grandfather's Clock - Natashia Brown/Mackaruffin/Hatsuki/Prophet21[00:00:00]

My grandfather's clock was too large for the shelf[00:00:13]

So it stood ninety years on the floor[00:00:20]

It was taller by half than the old man himself[00:00:26]

Though it weighed not a pennyweight more[00:00:33]

It was bought on the morn of the day[00:00:40]

That he was born[00:00:45]

He was always his treasure and pride[00:00:47]

But it stopped short never to go again[00:00:54]

When the old man died[00:01:01]

Ninety years without slumbering[00:01:08]

His life seconds numbering[00:01:15]

It stopped short never to go again[00:01:22]

When the old man died[00:01:28]

My grandfather said that of those he could hire[00:01:35]

Not a servant so faithful he found[00:01:42]

For it wasted no time and had but one desire[00:01:49]

At the close of each week to be wound[00:01:56]

And it kept in it's place[00:02:02]

Not a frown upon it's face[00:02:06]

And it's hands never hung by it's side[00:02:09]

But it stopped short never to go again[00:02:17]

When the old man died[00:02:23]

It rang and alarmed in the dead of the night[00:02:30]

An alarm that for years had been dumb[00:02:37]

And we knew that his spirit was pluming his flight[00:02:44]

That his hour for departure had come[00:02:50]

Still the clock kept the time[00:02:57]

With a soft and muffled chime[00:03:01]

As we silently stood by his side[00:03:04]

But it stopped short never to go again[00:03:11]

When the old man died[00:03:18]

Ninety years without slumbering[00:03:25]

His life seconds numbering[00:03:32]

It stopped short never to go again[00:03:39]

When the old man died[00:03:45]

It stopped short never to go again[00:03:53]

When the old man died[00:03:59]
