“Tik-Tak” is a 2017 song by the Russian–Kazakh musical group A’Studio. The main theme of the lyrics is love, more precisely the desire to reconnect with the loved person. The song is linked to the theme of time through its title, “tick-tock,” which is repeated in the chorus. “Tick-tock” is a reference to the beating of the heart and recurs in the refrain.

There is therefore a desperate longing — “I need you more than before” — which emphasizes the level of emotional attachment. Through “I have already said that I was wrong,” the theme of guilt is introduced, while “without you I no longer need the night” conveys the idea of loneliness.

Ты мне нужен больше, чем тогда.
Только, как вернуть всё назад?
Я уж сказала, что я не права
И теперь не врут глаза.

Без тебя ночь мне больше не нужна,
До утра на краю стою одна.
Без тебя в сердце только тишина
Для меня, но я ей не нужна.

Тик-тик-тик тик-так так.
Бьётся сердце в такт так.
Без тебя никак мне,
сердце рвется в такте.
Тик-тик-тик тик-так так.
Бьётся сердце в такт так.
И не знаю, как мне снова без твоих сил.

Я всё думаю, где ты сейчас;
Где твои шаги в темноте.
Время словно хочет быть за нас,
Только мы уже не те.

Без тебя будто я уже не я.
Только зря эти капли без дождя.
Нет тебя, не хочу я больше ждать,
Но любя я пою опять.

Я все думала, где ты сейчас? Где ты?
Ведь без тебя я не я, не я.

I need you more than I did then.
But how can I bring it all back?
I already said I was wrong
And now my eyes don’t lie.

Without you, I no longer need the night,
Until morning, I stand alone on the edge.
Without you, there’s only silence in my heart
For me, but it doesn’t need me.

Tick-tick-tick tick-tock.

My heart beats in time.
I can’t live without you,
my heart breaks in time.
Tick-tick-tick tick-tock.

My heart beats in time.
And I don’t know how I can live without your strength again.

I keep wondering where you are now;
Where are your steps in the darkness?
It’s as if time wants to be our ally,
But we’re not the same anymore.

Without you, it’s as if I’m not myself anymore.
But these drops are in vain without rain.
Without you, I don’t want to wait any longer,
But loving, I sing again.

Tick-tick-tick tick-tock tick.
My heart beats in time with this.
I can’t live without you,
my heart is breaking in time with this.
Tick-tick-tick tick-tock tick.
My heart beats in time with this.
And I don’t know how I can live without your strength again.

I kept wondering, where are you now? Where are you?
Because without you, I’m not myself, not myself.
