Before the night comes, before the city sleeps
|
I walk a lonely mile
|
I know you're out there
|
I know you're waiting for me to make a sign
|
|
I know you'd like me to go and crumble
|
Reveal myself to you
|
I lost a wing and grew a shell on the wound
|
Oh so soon
|
|
And heartbreak no you can't catch me
|
Hot on my heals but I move too fast
|
I know you think that I would make good company...at last
|
|
You always come 'round after your good friend love
|
Has gone and run aground
|
A heart in shambles oh it's just what you need
|
Your purpose found
|
|
You turn the lights down and draw the curtains
|
You put the kettle on
|
Come over here, sit down tell me your troubles
|
You sing the saddest song
|
|
And heartbreak no you can't catch me
|
Hot on my heals but I move too fast
|
I know you think that I would make good company... at last
|
|
I'm free to wander so get up off of your knees
|
And find some other fool
|
Someone who'll hold you when you've got no one to tease
|
It won't be me
|
|
