The Waking Hour

[Verse 1]
And I wake to the radio morning news
Just as the day is dawning
And I watch from the window as a passing cloud
Dulls a hopeful morning
And I wonder, will the girl I love
Come back with the mourning?
But the omen crow at the waking hour
Has given me fair warning

[Chorus]
And the heart that's breaking never makes a sound
And the heart that's breaking never makes a sound

[Verse 2]
And she was once my heart's delight
My need and my desire
She was my love, she was my light
My water and my fire
And I was once the same to hеr
When we both walked togеther
The heavy heart at the waking hour
Predicted heavy weather

[Chorus]
And the heart that's breaking never makes a sound
And the heart that's breaking never makes a sound

[Verse 3]
'Cause I know love, I've seen love's face
And I understand its sorrows
And for every love I've ever had
Has always meant tomorrow
Though I am Wednesday's child, woe
I try not to ungrateful
But I was born in midnight black
With a heart than can be hateful

[Chorus]
And the heart that's breaking never makes a sound
And the heart that's breaking never makes a sound

[Outro]
Oh, and the heart that's breaking never makes a sound
And the heart that's breaking never makes a sound
