Birth Control - Until the Night lyrics

You told me it's all over That you'd made up your mind to leave me for good There was nothing I could do or say That could change your mind, make you stay I didn't realise how much I'd hurt you How many painful lonely times I made you go through Now I know and I feel like dying But I'll take the pain and the lonely heartache Hoping against hope you might come back My heart cries out for you Now that you've gone away I lie alone at night, praying for the day So I can numb the pain, pretend again All is well, I'm alright until the night Must have been deaf, dumb and blind Not to see all the love that was before me Now that you are gone Even in a crowd I'm so alone So incomplete, like half a man Mmm, sit nursing my drink trying not to think Turning away every now and again So my friends won't see, won't see the pain And tears in my eyes The doors always open To my house, to my heart If you ever want to come back home I'll try to hide the pain To pretend yet again All is well, I'm alright until the night, oh
