Before too long

The one that you're loving

Will wish that he'd never met you

Before too long

He who is nothing

Will suddenly come into view



So let the time keep rolling on

It's on my side

Lonely nights will soon be gone

High is the tide



Before too long

We'll be together

And no-one will tear us apart

Before too long

The words will be spoken

I know all the action by heart



As the night time follows day

I'm closing in

Every dog will have his day

Any dog can win

Shut the shade do no fear anymore

Here I come creeping round your back door



Before too long

I'll be repeating

What's happened before in my mind

Before too long

Over and over

Just like a hammer inside



As the nighttime follows day

I'm closing in

Every dog will have his day

Any dog can win

Before too long

Before too long
