Speed Of The Sound Of Loneliness Lyrics

"Speed of the Sound of Loneliness", Alabama 3 (A3)

[Everybody gotta run
sometime]



Come home late, come home early

Come home big when
I'm feelin' small

Come home straight, come home fucked-up

Sometimes
I don't come home at all



CHORUS



What in the world has
come over me?

What in heaven's name have I done?

I've broken the
speed of the sound of loneliness

I'm out there running just to be on the
run





You've a heart that burns with a fever

You've got
a worried and a jealous mind

How can a love that'll last forever

Leave me so damn far behind?



Tell me now



CHORUS





It's a mighty mean and dreadful sorrow 

[Heartbreakin's
what it is]

It's crossed that evil line today 

[Let's cross it
together, hand-in-hand]

I can't think about tomorrow 

[Well now,
who can?]

I ain't got one word to say 

[Now sing along]



CHORUS





(Variation from John Prine's Lyrics)
