Heartbreak

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

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
