Before (the Next Heartache Falls) Songtext
von Mike + the Mechanics

A freezing cold December, brings a chill into my heart
And fills me with an emptiness, now we're so far apart
Lost in my confusion, now through everything I see
Oh, won't you come on back? I need you here with me

Before, before
Before the next heartache falls
Before, before
Before the next heartache falls

Lonely as the darkness, casts a spell upon the night
I'm past the point of caring, if I'm wrong or I am right
I wonder if you realize, oh, just what it means to me
Listen to me darlin', I'm just trying to let you see

Before, before
Before the next heartache falls
Before, before
Before the next heartache falls


Early morning finds me at the house upon the hill
Everywhere the laughter, reminds me of you still
I'm haunted by the memories, all too easy to recall
I would dare to mention there's a lesson for us all

Before, before
Before the next heartache falls
Before, before
Before the next heartache falls

Tears already falling like the rain upon the ground
When the storm is over, no trace of it is found
Never will I understand, how you vanished like the rain
Tell me that you'll come back and let me live again

Before, before
Before the next heartache falls
Before, before
Before the next heartache falls

Before, before
Before the next heartache falls
Before, before
Before the next heartache falls


Before, before
Before the next heartache falls
Before, before
Before the next heartache falls
