Tears Before Bedtime

by wildcalm

lyrics

I’ve been waiting all night 
for the ring of the phone
I keep trying to call
But you’re already gone

You got that look I’ve seen before
Only your eyes give you away
Noone will ever hold you like I hold you
When I enfold you in my arms

There’ll be tears before bedtime
Baby, you mark my words
Trouble comes in the nighttime
Doesn’t care if it hurts

It’s a quarter to midnight
The end of the day
I just need you to hold me
But you’re so far away

I’ve been hoping that
Love will bring you back
Back to me (back to me)

Ain’t no promises
Only warning signs
You been giving me
No guarantee

You got that look I’ve seen before
Baby, the smile gives you away

Noone will ever know you
Like I know you
Now I know why you cannot stay

There’ll be tears before bedtime…

It’s a quarter to midnight...

How did I lose you forever?
Did we forget how to love?
When did the now become never?
Why was I just not enough?

There’ll be tears before bedtime
Baby, you mark my words
Trouble comes in the nighttime
Doesn’t care if it hurts

It’s a quarter to midnight
The end of the day
I just need you to hold me
But you’re so far away
