The Big Hurt

Now it begins, now that's you've gone

Needles and pins, twilight till dawn

Watching the clock till you return

Lighting that torch and watching it burnNow it begins, day after day

This is my life, ticking away

Waiting to hear footsteps that say

Love will appear and this time to stayEach time you go

I try to pretend

It's over at last

And this time the big hurt will endNow it begins, now that's you've gone

Needles and pins, twilight till dawn

But if you don't come back again

I'll wonder when, oh when will it end

The big hurt

The big hurt

The big hurt
