Beats Me Up

BEATS ME UP
(Steve Brown)

Here I go again
the train whistle sounds for me
Here I go again
those old friends they call for me

But it BEATS ME UP
to be away from you
and it BEATS ME UP
how much I love you
Still it BEATS ME UP
to miss your birthday
and it BEATS ME UP
to miss your smile

Time is to pretend
this vacancy leads you here
Time is our best friend
thinking I'll be home again

But it BEATS ME UP
to be away from you
and it BEATS ME UP
how much I love you
Still it BEATS ME UP
to miss your birthday
and it BEATS ME UP
to miss your smile

But in a way it gives me strength
it still BEATS ME UP,
it BEATS ME UP so bad
but it makes me want you more

Here I go again
Those old friends they call for me
Time is our best friend
with knowing I'll be home again
