The pendulum swings, slowing it's beat with each passing hour.
Like ground control readying for launch, counting down until I'm in your arms again...

Five... O'clock somewhere
Four...Pete's sake, get on with it clock!
Three...until we most happy be
Two... much anticipation, if we split the difference, can we get there faster?
One... away, en route, I'll kiss you today
Zero... Time stands still
