Before the Sunrise

(Jerry McBee)



I guess I'd better try again

To straighten up my tie again before I leave

The party's over the laughter's died

There's no one in this room but you and me

Though your lips are honey sweet

And you're so close that I can feel your heartbeat.



Tears would fill somebody's eyes

If we don't make it on before the sunrise

We could make excuses

Play with all, late hours and the wine

Anything we say or do

Won't keep the sunup comin' up on time.



So I guess I'd better turn and go

There's one thing that you should know

Babe you're the one

It's not that I don't want you too

'Cause you know that you could stay until the dawn.

When daylight is breaking when our home whenver day awaken.



Tears would fill somebody's eyes

If we don't make it on before the sunrise

Tears would fill somebody's eyes

If we don't make it on before the sunrise...
