Before too long, the one that you're loving
Will wish that they'd never met you
Before too long, he who is nothing
Will suddenly come into view
So let the time keep rolling on
It's on my side
Lonely nights will soon be gone
High is the tide

Before too long, we'll be tonight
And no one will tear us apart
Before too long, the words will be spoken
I know all the action by heart
As the nighttime follows day
I'm closing in
Every dog will have his day
Any dog can win

Shut the shade, do not fear anymore
Here I come, creeping 'round your back door
Before too long
Before too long

As the nighttime follows day
I'm closing in (Before too long)
Every dog will have his day
Any dog can win
As the nighttime follows day
I'm closing in (Before too long)
Every dog will have his day
Any dog can win
