Velho o suficiente para ser o pai dela
Mas os homens novos estava apenas furiosos eles alimentavam suas queixas
E ela se sentiu lisonjeada pelo charme dele
Isso não iria machucá-la todos eles tinham suas chances
Ele mandou flores para ela e limosines
Ela era tratada como uma rainha
Qualquer coisa que ela sempre quis
Não era um problema para um homem como ele
E todos esperavam que logo
Ela pedisse para ele a lua
Se ela usasse o anel dele
Relances instruídos dos amigos dele
Nas casas nos fins de semana da alta sociedade
Mas ele não se importou
Ele nunca se sentiu tão homem
E todo o tempo o relógio estava fazendo tic-tac
E todos iriam invejar o homem mais velho e sua bela jovem esposa
Sim, todos iriam invejar
Numa casa em cima de uma colina
Ela estava lá com tempo para matar
Ela viveu uma vida que ela só poderia sonhar
A vida nunca foi o que pareceu
Para todas as amigas que ela ignoravá
Ela negava que estava entediada
Ela não tinha tempo para dançar, sem tempo para dançar
Mas o relógio na parede
Que fazia tic-tac no hall
Sempre lembrou ela
Que a vida estava indo bem
Mas ela estava feliz e ela juraria que não mudaria nenhuma coisa
E todos iriam invejar o homem mais velho e sua bela jovem esposa
Sim, todos iriam invejar
Agora é 5 horas da manhã em ponto
Ela deve ter passado a noite com aquele velho amigo dela de novo
Ela ama dançar
Ela está sumindo mais e mais esses últimos dias
Mas ele ainda está preso nas suas antigas manias
Talvez ela precise de um pouco mais de romance
Mas o relógio na parede ainda está fazendot ic-tac no hall
Ela deve chegar em casa logo, logo
Aonde um homem mais jovem iria lamentar
Ele toma um remédio e vai dormir
Agora quem iria invejar o homem mais velho e sua bela jovem esposa
Quem iria invejar?
Quem iria invejar?
Old enough to be her dad
But the young men were just mad they nursed their grievances
And she was flattered by his charm
It wouldn't do her any harm they all had their chances
He sent her flowers and limousines
She was treated like a queen
Anything she ever wanted
It was no problem for a man like him
And everyone expected soon
That she could ask him for the moon
If she would wear his ring
Knowing glances from his friends
In the homes at the weekends of high society
But he didn't give a damn
He never felt more like a man
And all the time the clock was ticking
And all would envy the older man and his beautiful young wife
Yes, all would envy
In a house upon a hill
She was there with time to kill
She lived a life she'd only dreamed
The life was never what it seemed
To all her friends that she'd ignored
She denied she was bored
She had no time for dancing, no time for dancing
But the clock upon the wall
That was ticking in the hall
Always reminded her
That life was going on as well
But she was happy and she would swear she wouldn't change a thing
And all would envy the older man and his beautiful young wife
Yes, all would envy
Now it's 5 o'clock am
She must have spent the night again with that old friend of hers
She loves to dance
She's missing more and more these days
But he's still stuck in his old ways
Perhaps she needs a little more romance
But the clock upon the wall is still ticking in the hall
She must be home soon, soon
Where a younger man would weep
He takes a pill and goes to sleep
Now who would envy the older man and his beautiful young wife
Who would envy?
Who would envy?
