Lyrics Never Before - Live - Cold Chisel

Song written by Ian

Lay down your head and weep, mama
Lay down next to me
'Til you cross the borders of sleep, mama
Lay down next to me
I wish no words of sorrow
Nor whisper words of spite
Let the darkness in your heart
Melt into this night

I say whoa, never before, never before did it break like that
Whoa, never before, never before did it feel so bad

Drink some more of my wine, mama
Take some more of my bread
There's a million songs to be sung
But not a word to be said
If I call on the angel of mercy
If I call on the angel of light
I'm way outta line, but there ain't much time
Storm gonna break tonight

I say whoa
I said whoa
I said whoa, never before, never before did it break like that
Whoa, never before, never before did it feel so bad
Yeah-yeah, whoa, whoo, yeah

Lay down your head and weep, mama
Lay down next to me
'Til you cross the borders of sleep, mama
Lay down next to me
See the pure white dove in the sky above
Flying so high
I think the angel of mercy
Must have heard you cry

I said whoa, never before, never before did it break like that
Whoa, never before, never before did it feel so bad
Whoa, never before, never before did it break like that
Whoa, never before, never before did it feel this bad

Whoa, (hey), never before, never before
Whoa, (hey), never before, never before
Whoa, no, never before, babe
Say whoa, did you ever feel it too, babe?
Whoa, never before, never before
Whoa, I said whoa-oh-oh
Thank you
