About This Quote
Tick Tock Tick Tock is a poem that was written by English poet Rudyard Kipling. The full poem reads: Tick Tock Tick Tock, the clock strikes two; My love, my darling, I must away; I've wasted too much time and care; I must be on my way. The time has come for me to go; I must leave you now and say: Good-bye. I will not take you with me; My journey is a long and weary one; But when we meet again we'll be happy yet, And there'll be time enough to say: Good-bye. The clock strikes two, but still no sound Of the man who's left you here alone; But your heart says to your heart, "There's none like him, no one like you." The clock strikes two, but still the door Is shut against him that's gone away; And you sit staring at the wall, And the tears are running down your face.
