Like a thief he's come, like a thief he's gone | |
He's stolen your tears one by one | |
You're proud to love him, it's a foolish sign | |
You're a broken heart at the scene of the crime | |
And the night drags on, and the fever burns | |
Come to your senses, everybody learns | |
You sleep in sweet fire lost and blue | |
You're an empty doll in the power of a fool | |
Don't go sleeping with the past | |
Don't go praying he'll come back | |
Take a deep breath and deny | |
You could love a man like that | |
Don't go sleeping with the past | |
Don't go waking with a dream | |
There's no tenderness that's left | |
In the cracks you step between | |
If it looks like rain, if it makes no sound | |
It's an echo of pain on common ground | |
Love's like a junkie, addiction's a fact | |
Passion's a monkey you can't keep off your back | |
But he takes love and he turns it cold | |
He's just an iceman honey, ain't got no heart of gold | |
But he sees you and he runs from you | |
Come on and shake this shadow that you're clinging to | |
And he'll hurt you | |
And he'll run from you | |
Come on and shake this shadow that you're clinging to |
Like a thief he' s come, like a thief he' s gone | |
He' s stolen your tears one by one | |
You' re proud to love him, it' s a foolish sign | |
You' re a broken heart at the scene of the crime | |
And the night drags on, and the fever burns | |
Come to your senses, everybody learns | |
You sleep in sweet fire lost and blue | |
You' re an empty doll in the power of a fool | |
Don' t go sleeping with the past | |
Don' t go praying he' ll come back | |
Take a deep breath and deny | |
You could love a man like that | |
Don' t go sleeping with the past | |
Don' t go waking with a dream | |
There' s no tenderness that' s left | |
In the cracks you step between | |
If it looks like rain, if it makes no sound | |
It' s an echo of pain on common ground | |
Love' s like a junkie, addiction' s a fact | |
Passion' s a monkey you can' t keep off your back | |
But he takes love and he turns it cold | |
He' s just an iceman honey, ain' t got no heart of gold | |
But he sees you and he runs from you | |
Come on and shake this shadow that you' re clinging to | |
And he' ll hurt you | |
And he' ll run from you | |
Come on and shake this shadow that you' re clinging to |
Like a thief he' s come, like a thief he' s gone | |
He' s stolen your tears one by one | |
You' re proud to love him, it' s a foolish sign | |
You' re a broken heart at the scene of the crime | |
And the night drags on, and the fever burns | |
Come to your senses, everybody learns | |
You sleep in sweet fire lost and blue | |
You' re an empty doll in the power of a fool | |
Don' t go sleeping with the past | |
Don' t go praying he' ll come back | |

You could love a man like that | |
Don' t go sleeping with the past | |
Don' t go waking with a dream | |

And he' ll hurt you | |
And he' ll run from you | |
Come on and shake this shadow that you' re clinging to |
