Afternoon

Clock ticks, papers piled high
I stare out the window, wondering why
Minutes drag, seconds slow
At my desk, but my mind won't go

Phone buzzes, but it's not you
My heart races, what to do

Shigoto no naka de
Anata o matte iru
Saikai no yakusoku
Kokoro ni tomoru

Emails read, but thoughts astray
I long for the end of day
Memories of your smile so bright
In this mundane, endless plight

Phone buzzes, but it's not you
My heart races, what to do

Shigoto no naka de
Anata o matte iru
Saikai no yakusoku
Kokoro ni tomoru

In the hustle, in the noise
I find solace in your voice
Counting down, the hours fly
Until I see you, by and by

Shigoto no naka de
Anata o matte iru
Saikai no yakusoku
Kokoro ni tomoru

Clock ticks, papers piled high
I stare out the window, wondering why
Minutes drag, seconds slow
At my desk, but my mind won't go
