the big hurt

Singer:scott walker

now it begins

now that's you've gone

needles and pins

twilight till dawn

watching the clock till you return

lighting that torch and watching it burn

now it begins

day after day

this is my life

ticking away

waiting to hear footsteps that say

love will appear and this time to stay

each time you go

i try to pretend

it's over at last

and this time the big hurt will end

now it begins

now that's you've gone

needles and pins

twilight till dawn

but if you don't come back again

i'll wonder when

oh when will it end

the big hurt

the big hurt

the big hurt
