Come here darlin

And lay down by my side

The big star s fallin

And the moon will turn the tide

The whistle of the wind will lead us on

Here we are not too far

Before the dawn

Pictures keep on fallin from the walls

The ghosts are still careenin

Through the halls

The drunken neighbour sings his favourite song

In the stardust of the night

Before the dawn

You never really know just who your friends are

Till you find out at last who they are not

You never recognize the things you really want

Till you remember all the dreams that you forgot

We ve been runnin for so long against the grain

Tryin to find a way to turn around again

Trouble in your heart will soon be gone

It s lonely blue it s only true

Before the dawn

Come here darlin lay down by my side

Well the big star s falling

And the moon will turn the tide

The whistle of the wind will lead us on

Here we are not too far

Before the dawn

Well here we are not too far

Before the dawn
