Mike & The Mechanics
"Before"

A freezing cold december brings a chill into my heartAnd fills me with an emptiness now we're so far apartLost in my confusion now through everything I seeOh won't you come on back I need you here with me
Chorus:
BeforeBeforeBefore the next heartache fallsBeforeBefore the next heartache falls
Lonely as the darkness casts a spell upon the nightI'm past the point of caring if I'm wrong or I am rightI wonder if you realise oh just what it means to meListen to me darlin' I'm just let you see

(chorus)
Early morning finds me at the house upon the hillEverywhere the laughter reminds me of you stillI'm haunted by the memories all too easy to recallI would dare to mention there's a lesson for us all
(chorus)
Tears already falling like the rain upon the groundWhen the storm is over no trace of it is foundNever will I understand how you vanished like the rainTell me that you'll come back and let me live again
(chorus)
