Under The Wire Lyrics - Singles - Running Red Lights

I thought my heart had seen its last days 

I gave up on giving it away 

'Cause I was walking down a jilted lover's road 

And there was no turning back...so I was told 

No, there was no going back so I was told 

Once the grip of hurting had its hold 

Those cold, shiver girls of stone 

They crushed my heart and chilled my bones 

It was burnt ash, black as coal 

In my broken, high-heel-trampled soul 

'Til there you were, like a river, babe 

You carried all my blues away 

Oh, your love came in under the wire 

Drowned in a river of tears 

I was played out beyond my years 

The needle moved the record 'round the same old song 

My body buried in the mud 

I was almost dead, the trench was dug 

I was waiting for the darkness to 

descend on me 

But, while I was waiting on that goodbye train 

Umbrella up, you fought the rain 

You ushered me out of the cold 

Baby, you saved my soul 

You know 

Oh, your love came in under the wire 

Your love, your love, your love, your love, your love came in under the wire 

Oh, your love came in under the wire
