Now it begins, now that you've gone Needles and pins, twilight till dawn Watching that clock till you return Lighting that torch and watching it burn Now it begins, day after day This is my night, ticking away Waiting to hear footsteps that say "Love will appear and this time to stay" Oh, each time you go I try to pretend It's over at last This time the big hurt will end Now it begins, now that you've gone Needles and pins, twilight till dawn But if you go, come back again I wonder when, oh when will it end? The big hurt The big hurt The big hurt
