You come home late and you come home early
You come on big when you're feeling small
You come home straight and you come home curly
Sometimes you don't come home at all
What in the world has come over you
What in heaven's name have I done
You've broken the speed of the sound of loneliness
You're out there running just to be on the run
Well I got a heart that burns with a fever
And I got a worried and a jealous mind
How could a love that could last forever
Get left so far behind
What in the world has come over you
What in heaven's name have I done
You've broken the speed of the sound of loneliness
You're out there running just to be on the run
It's a mighty mean and a dreadful sorrow
It's crossed the evil line today
How can you ask about tomorrow
When we ain't got one word to say
What in the world has come over you
What in heaven's name have I done
You've broken the speed of the sound of loneliness
You're out there running just to be on the run
You've broken the speed of the sound of loneliness
You're out there running just to be on the run
