Tears Before Bedtime

I know the name on the tip of your tongue

And i know that accusing look

Everybody knows i've been so wrong

That's the problem and here's the hook



Tears before bedtime

There'll be trouble tonight

I don't want to talk about it anymore

I don't want to have another fight

I don't want to talk i don't want to fight

How wrong can i be before i am right



For the tears that you boo hoo hoo hoo

There can be no defence

You say you'll forgive and forget

But it's only a pretence



Either you can leave the past behind

Or give me something to disconnect my mind

I sleep with my fists clenched tight

When i don't lie awake all night

I guess time gave up the ghost too late

And the balance of our love

Very soon turns to hate



Darling your suspiciousness

Tortures me at night

But i can't excuse the cruel words

That i use whenever we fight



(chorus)
