Likkle Hands Onna Di Clock

AN-26 · Reggae · 23 August 2026

**Likkle Hands onna di Clock** is a warm, gently melancholic roots reggae song about a heart that has spent too long alone, quietly ticking away while waiting for love to bring it back to life.

Using the image of an old wind-up clock, the song turns loneliness, healing and renewed hope into something wonderfully tangible. A touch, a little care and the presence of someone special may be all it takes to set those little hands moving again.

Beneath its playful “tick-tick” chorus is a tender message: even a heart marked by silence, disappointment and time can still be wound up again—and given another chance to love.

Lyrics

Mi heart sit quiet pon di shelf Like a small clock hiding by itself Every night it tick an it tick But it need yuh hand fi mek it kick Cold room, one chair, one plate Time move slow when love too late Mi watch di wall, mi watch di door Still mi spirit ask fi more Wind mi up, wind mi slow Hold mi close, mek di feeling flow One touch now can start di spark One sweet move can light di dark Likkle hands onna di clock Tick-tick, don’t stop Likkle hands onna di clock Wind it up, love it nuh flop Likkle hands onna di clock Tick-tick, don’t stop (oh-oh) Likkle hands onna di clock Wind it up, love it nuh flop Mi heart got dents, mi heart got rain Too much silence, too much pain But yuh name still live inna mi chest Like a small song nah get no rest If yuh come true, bring yuh warmth Lay yuh palm pon mi weary storm Spin dis sorrow, turn it round Tek dis broken ting an’ give it sound Wind mi up, mek mi shine Set di seconds back in line If yuh stay, mi know fi true Di whole wide world can start anew Likkle hands onna di clock Tick-tick, don’t stop Likkle hands onna di clock Wind it up, love it nuh flop Likkle hands onna di clock Tick-tick, don’t stop (oh-oh) Likkle hands onna di clock Wind it up, love it nuh flop One small turn, one soft care See how hope come back from nowhere If yuh love me, ease mi mind Come and mend what time left behind Likkle hands onna di clock Tick-tick, don’t stop Likkle hands onna di clock Wind it up, love it nuh flop Likkle hands onna di clock Tick-tick, don’t stop (oh-oh) Likkle hands onna di clock Wind it up, love it nuh flop
