Before the night comes, before the city sleeps
I walk a lonely mile I see you watching
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
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
