You come home late, come home early
You come home big, feeling small
You come home straight, come home curly
Sometimes you don't come home at all

What in the world's come over?
What in heaven's name have I done?
You've broken the speed of the sound of loneliness
Out there running just to be on the run

Well, I got a heart that burns with a fever
And I got a worried, jealous mind
Oh, how can a love last forever?
You get left so far behind

So, what in the world's come over?
What in heaven's name have I done?
You've broken the speed of the sound of loneliness
Oh, out there running just to be on the run

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

So, what in the world's come over you?
What in heaven's name have I done?
You've broken the speed of the sound of loneliness
Out there running just to be on the run

Out there running just to be on the run
Out there running just to be on the run
