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
So what in the world's

come over you?
And what in heaven's name
have you 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 can a love that'll

last forever
Get left so far behind
So what in the world's
come over you?

And what in heaven's name
have you 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
That's crossed the
evil line today
How can you ask about

tomorrow?
When we ain't got one
word to say
So what in the world's

come over you?
What in heaven's name
have you done?
You've broken the speed

of the sound of loneliness
You're out there running
just to be on the run
So what in the world's

come over you?
What in heaven's name
have you done?
You've broken the speed

of the sound of loneliness
You're out there running
just to be on the run
You're out there running
just to be on the run
You're out there

running just to be
on the run....
