Grandfather's Clock - Harold Williams[00:00:00]

My grandfather's clock[00:00:05]

Was too large for the shelf[00:00:07]

So it stood ninety years on the floor[00:00:10]

It was taller by half[00:00:14]

Than the old man himself[00:00:17]

Though it weighed not a pennyweight more[00:00:19]

It was bought on the morn[00:00:24]

Of the day that he was born[00:00:26]

And was always his treasure and pride[00:00:29]

But it stopped short[00:00:34]

Never to go again[00:00:37]

When the old man died[00:00:38]

Ninety years without slumbering[00:00:44]

Tick tock tick tock[00:00:47]

His life seconds numbering[00:00:49]

Tick tock tick tock[00:00:51]

It stopped short[00:00:54]

Never to go again[00:00:56]

When the old man died[00:00:58]

In watching it's pendulum[00:01:08]

Swing to and fro[00:01:10]

Many hours had he spent while a boy[00:01:12]

And in childhood and manhood[00:01:17]

The clock seemed to know[00:01:20]

And to share both his grief and his joy[00:01:22]

For it struck twenty-four[00:01:26]

When he entered at the door[00:01:28]

With a blooming and beautiful bride[00:01:31]

But it stopped short[00:01:35]

Never to go again[00:01:38]

When the old man died[00:01:40]

Ninety years without slumbering[00:01:45]

Tick tock tick tock[00:01:48]

His life seconds numbering[00:01:50]

Tick tock tick tock[00:01:52]

It stopped short[00:01:55]

Never to go again[00:01:57]

When the old man died[00:01:59]

It rang an alarm[00:02:09]

In the dead of the night[00:02:11]

An alarm that for years had been dumb[00:02:14]

And we knew that his spirit[00:02:19]

Was pluming his flight[00:02:21]

That his hour of departure had come[00:02:24]

Still the clock kept the time[00:02:29]

With a soft and muffled chime[00:02:32]

As we silently stood by his side[00:02:34]

But it stopped short[00:02:40]

Never to go again[00:02:44]

When the old man died[00:02:46]

Ninety years without slumbering[00:02:52]

Tick tock tick tock[00:02:55]

His life seconds numbering[00:02:57]

Tick tock tick tock[00:03:00]

It stopped short[00:03:02]

Never to go again[00:03:05]

When the old man died[00:03:07]

Tick tock[00:03:14]
