On the ferry to Vancouver, I suddenly see him - not far away
By the railing, wishing he'd come over - and say "Hey"
Our silent game of looks, a dance we share
Will he break the ice, does he even dare?
Hey, just come over, say something sweet
I know you like this China Girl, don't fear the heat
Come on baby, please!
The clock is ticking, minutes fade
Talk to me now, don't be afraid
Tick Tock - Tick Tock
See her suddenly standing there, out of the corner of my eye
Hair dancing in the breeze, under the open sky
Her gaze meets mine, my heart skips a beat
But I hesitate, stuck in my seat
Hey, just come over, say something sweet
I know you like this China Girl, don't fear the heat
Come on baby, please! The clock is ticking, minutes fade
Talk to me now, don't be afraid
Tick Tock - Tick Tock - Tick Tock
Come on, man. Just go for it, talk to her now!
Hey, just come over, say something sweet
I know you like this China Girl, don't fear the heat
Come on baby, please! The clock is ticking, minutes fade
Talk to me now, don't be afraid
Tick Tock - Tick Tock - Tick Tock
Hey, just go over, say something sweet
I like this China Girl, don't fear the heat
Don't be a loser, please!
The clock is ticking, minutes fade
Talk to her now, don't be afraid
Tick Tock - Tick Tock - Tick Tock
Hey, just come over, say something sweet
I know you like this China Girl, don't fear the heat
Come on baby, please! The clock is ticking, minutes fade
Talk to me now, don't be afraid
Tick Tock - Tick Tock - Tick Tock
Tick Tock - Tick Tock
