Just before the sun breaks the darkness
Just before the shadows move on
I know a fool like me should be sleeping
Just before dawn
I keep telling my heart it's not worth it
For the time our love's been living on
Still I'm here all alone my heart breaking
Just before dawn
I hold you in my arms while I'm dreaming
I awake to find the pillow I sleep on and you're gone
Just before the sun breaks the darkness
Just before the shadows move on
I beg my aching heart to forget you
Just before dawn
I beg my aching heart to forget you
Just before dawn

I was born the day I found you and I'll die the day I'll lose you
And lately I'm not feeling very well
Oh it's not the fear of dying but of the nights that I'll spend crying
Cause I'm losing you to someone I can't tell
I can't tell by the way your lips kiss me so lightly
By the way your arms no longer hold me tightly
So if I linger when I kiss you I guess I already miss you
So don't pretend to me that all is well
There's a heartbreak in the making and my heart's already breaking
Cause I'm losing you to someone I can't tell
There's a heartbreak in the making and my heart's already breaking
Cause I'm losing you to someone I can't tell
(I can't tell I can't tell)

Some people run some people crawl
Some people don't even move at all
Some roads lead forward some roads lead back
Some roads are bathed in light some wrapped in fearful black
(Time oh time) where did you go
(Time oh good good time) where did you go
Some people never get some never give
Some people never die and some never live
Some folks treat me mean some folks treat me kind
Most folks just go their way don't pay me any mind
(Time oh time) where did you go...
Sometimes I'm satisfied sometimes I'm not
Sometimes my face is cold sometimes it's hot
At sunset I laugh at sunrise I cry
At midnight I'm in between and wondering why
(Time oh time) where did you go...

(I hate my dreams) for missing you
(I hate my lips) for kissing you
(I hate my arms) for holding you
And I hate myself for loving you
When you walked out on me it should have ended then
But I keep coming back and each time I swear never again
(I hate my dreams) for missing you...
Why can I face the truth that you and I are through
But I can't change my heart so I crawl like a fool back to you
(I hate my dreams) for missing you...
I hate myself for loving you

Missing you can't help but wish that you
Were in my arms tonight making love to me
Kissing you that's all I want to do
It never seems just right now that we are apart
I always spend my time just writing lines to you
Can't wait for you to write saying you love me too
Missing you can't help but wish that you
Were in my arms tonight making love to me
[ instrumental ]
I always spend my time just writing lines to you...

If this house could talk oh what a story
Although it's only made of wood and stone
How it would brag about its days of glory
When it almost became a happy home
I just came back in town to sign the papers
The house is sold now it's no longer mine
And since the place I built for you once meant so much to me
Thought I'd drop by and see it one more time
I parked the car got out and looked it over
The unkept lawn now seems so strange to me
That rambling rose that I'd set out with tender care had died
And weeds grow now where flowers used to be
I walked up close looked through the picture window
The past was oh so clear as I looked through
I listened close and almost heard those tender words of love
As I sat by the fireside with you
If this house could talk oh what a story...

(Wish me a rainbow and wish me the stars)
All this you can give me wherever you are
And dreams for my pillow and stars for my eyes
And the masquerade ball where our love wins first prize
(Wish me red roses and yellow balloon)
And caress us whirling to gay dancing tunes
I want all these treasures the most you can give
So wish me rainbow as long as I live
All my tomorrows depend on your love
So wish me a rainbow above
[ instrumental ]
All my tomorrows depend on your love
So wish me a rainbow above

Am I losing you are my fears coming true
How I wish I knew am I losing you
Is your love really through is there somebody new
Tell me what to do am I losing you
Am I too blind to see what's been happening to me
Every road has a bend will I be sweetheart or friend
Will the sweet things you do be for somebody new
Tell me what to do am I losing you
Am I too blind to see what's been happening to me...

It's a mean old world that we're living in
It's full of heartbreak hate and sin
But I love each mountain rock and grain of sand
Each morsel of the fertile land
The oceans rivers creeks and seas
The flowers and the weeds and the grass and the trees
It's a mean old world but I don't wanna die
I want to live as the ages roll by
I love the fish that swim and the birds that fly
The moon and the sun and the stars in the sky
The rain and the snow and the day and the night
The red and the yellow and the black and the white
[ instrumental ]
It's a mean old world it it just can't last
One of these days there'll be a big big blast
Then the rocks and the mountains and fertile land
Will all be small as a grain of sand
The fish and the birds and the grass will die
So will the flowers and so will I
It's a mean old world it's a mean old world
It's a mean old world it's a mean old world

You belong to my heart now and forever
And our love had its start not long ago
We were gathering stars while a million guitars played our love song
When I said I love you every beat of my heart said it too
Was a moment like this do you remember
And your eyes threw a kiss when they met mine
Now we own all the stars and the million guitars are still playing
Darling you are the song and and you'll always belong to my heart
[ instrumental ]
Now we own all the stars and the million guitars are still playing...

(You're not here to scold me anymore)
I wipe my shoes when I come through the door
And I quit dropping ashes on the floor
Every day I tidy up our room
I've become an expert with the broom
I'm not with the guys night after night
I don't stay out no more till broad day light
I don't do anything I did before
Oh but you're not here to scold me anymore
The silly little fights we had nobody understood
When I was bad then you got mad but even that was good
I changed a lot why I don't even snore
Oh but you're not here to scold me anymore
[ instrumental ]
My clothes I used to just throw down I now hang up myself
My razor blades and grooming aids I put back in the shelf
And I threw away that silly hat I wore
Oh but you're not here to scold me anymore

Have you looked into your heart did you find a memory or two
Even though the flame has died maybe there's a spark inside
Have you looked into your heart
Have you searched through all your dreams did you ever find a trace of me
Even though you say we're through that I'm not the one for you
Have you looked into your heart
When the evening shadows fall upon my window pane
I find I'm crying over and over and over and over again
Ever since we've been apart all I do is pray for your return
Take a look and you will see maybe there's a place for me
Have you looked into your heart
(Oh oh oh when the evening shadows fall upon my window pane)
I find I'm crying over over and over and over again
Ever since we've been apart all I do is pray for your return...
