Mike & The Mechanics - Before (The Next Heartache Falls) lyrics

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

Chorus:

Before

Before

Before the next heartache falls

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 realise oh just what it means to me

Listen to me darlin' I'm just let you see

(Chorus)

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

(Chorus)

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

(Chorus)
