Grandfather Clock

Will today's children recognize "tick-toc"

Will they even associate it with clocks

Now that everything's electric

I still remember the sound of the chime

Telling all of my grandfather's house the time

And how his clock would tick

But now I go back to visit and find

That old clock sits in need of a wind

But no one takes the time

So silent in the corner it stands

Holding up it's motionless hands
A relic of days gone by
