I know the name on the tip of your tongue
And I know that accusing look
Everybody knows I've been so wrong
That's the problem and here's the hook

Tears before bedtime
There'll be trouble tonight
I don't wanna talk about it anymore
I don't wanna have another fight
I don't wanna talk, I don't wanna fight
How wrong can I be before I am right

For the tears that you boo hoo hoo
There can be no defense
You say you'll forgive and forget
But it's only a pretence

Tears before bedtime
There'll be trouble tonight
I don't wanna talk about it anymore
I don't wanna have another fight
I don't wanna talk, I don't wanna fight
How wrong can I be before I am right

Either you can leave the past behind
Or give me something to disconnect my mind
I sleep with my fists clenched tight
When I don't lie awake all night

I guess time gave up the ghost too late
And the balance of our love
Very soon turns to hate
[ From: http://www.elyrics.net]

Darling, your suspiciousness
Tortures me at night
But I can't excuse the cruel words
That I use whenever we fight

Tears before bedtime
There'll be trouble tonight
I don't wanna talk about it anymore
I don't wanna have another fight
I don't wanna talk, I don't wanna fight
How wrong can I be before I am right

How wrong can I be before I am right
How wrong can I be before I am right
How wrong can I be before I am right

I don't wanna talk, I don't wanna fight
How wrong can I be before I am right
I don't wanna talk, I don't wanna fight
How wrong can I be before I am right

I don't wanna talk, I don't wanna fight
How wrong can I be before I am right
I don't wanna talk, I don't wanna fight
How wrong can I be before I am right

I don't wanna talk, I don't wanna fight
How wrong can I be before I am right
I don't wanna talk, I don't wanna fight
How wrong can I be before I am right
