Just Before Dawn

(Ned Miller - Roy Aldridge)



Uh, uh, uh, uh, just before dawn.



Just before the sun breaks the darkness

Just before the shadows move on

I know a fool like me should be sleeping

Uh, hu, uh, uh, just before dawn.



I keep telling my heart it's not worth it

For all time our love's been living on

Still I'm here all alone my heart's breaking

Uh, hu, uh, uh, just before dawn.



I hold you in my arms while I'm sleeping

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

Uh, hu, uh, uh, just before dawn.



Uh, uh, uh, uh, just before dawn...
