lyrics

Some folks die of a broken heart
Some folks die before the dyin’ starts - Starts the day we’re born
Some folks cry all through the night
Some folks wait until the morning light - The light we walk toward

(chorus) She’ll keep raking
He’ll keep taking
Hearts keep breaking for the ones we lost too soon
The sun keeps shining
Our minds rewinding
Our hearts keep beating for that virgin night in June
-virgin night in June

I been walkin’ down the block
I’ve been walkin’ to catch up with my talk - Keep my conscience clean
Well, I been catching up to you
I got more than catching up to do - Gonna wrap you in my dream

(chorus)

One day soon I’m gonna fly away
One day soon I’m gonna hunker down and stay - The flying starts when you don’t know who you are
But soon enough you know yourself
Soon enough you got dust upon that shelf - Of knowing who you are

(inst. chorus)

Now, it’s all over but the flyin’ away
The flyin’ away and the hurry up and stay - So I can say ‘goodbye’
Some folks die of a broken heart
But mine keeps glowin’ like a firecracker in the night - The night that has no end
