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... yours 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
