Speed Of The Sound Of Loneliness Lyrics by John Prine

Speed Of The Sound Of Loneliness Lyrics

    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

    Chorus:
    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

    Repeat chorus:

    It's a mighty mean and a dreadful sorrow
    It's crossed the evil line today
    Well, how can you ask about tomorrow
    We ain't got one word to say

    Repeat chorus:

    Ending:
    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
