Before & After

Is it all wrapped up in desire? Is this the place we go to light the fire? Someone like you should never be given the keys So just sit back, leave the driving to me You can spend your life looking for that special someone Someone to share, someone to fly, someone to swoon But when you least expect it, and when your guard is down They simply walk into the room And it's a sudden realization The train has left the station I'm done and gone my friend, my single life is at an end A heady situation But a subtle kind of persuasion And nothing can prevent love getting through Before is over now, and the after is with you It's true what they say about the heart It's skips a beat and gives you a start People like us should never be alone So stay with me now, keep talking on the phone Imagine the qualities that your dream love will have Trying to fit it all into the frame Then all at once you came along and it all burst into flames I threw away the rule book, 'cause love is no game And it's a sudden realization The train has left the station I'm done and gone my friend, my single life is at an end Oh a heady situation But a subtle kind of persuasion And nothing can prevent love getting through Before is over now, and the after is with you Goodbye to my old ways Goodbye to the good old days I left a note, for my old self and I quote... "Leave it all behind" And it's a sudden realization The train has left the station I'm done and gone my friend, my single life is at an end Whoa, oh, oh, oh it's a heady situation But a subtle kind of persuasion And nothing can prevent love getting through Before is over now, and the after is with you Before is over now, and the after is with you Before is over now And the after is with you
