Just before the sun breaks the darkness just before the shadows move on
I know a fool like me should be sleeping just before dawn

I keep telling my heart it's not worth it for the time our love's been living on
Still I'm here all alone my heart breaking just before dawn
I hold you in my arms while I'm dreaming
I awake to find the pillow I sleep on and you're gone
Just before the sun breaks the darkness just before the shadows move on
I beg my aching heart to forget you just before dawn
I beg my aching heart to forget you just before dawn
