There's a plane leaving at nine
If I fly - I could be on time
New York City to LA
My redhead waits - with pink champaigne
But traffic's slow I've hit every light
I check this watch of mine
And find that I'm
Fallin' behind
I'm runnin' on Heartbreak Time
I'm runnin' on Heartbreak Time

She'll have the table set for two
With candles too
And a log on the fire

She's been planning this all week
This night alone
Just her and me

But it'll take a miracle I'm sure
To get to her before
The tears fill her eyes
'Cause I'm runnin' behind
I'm runnin' on Heartbreak Time
I'm fallin' behind
I'm runnin' on Heartbreak Time
(Solo)
I'm sure when I hold her she'll say she's fine
But I know her hearts in sync with mine
I'm fallin' behind
I'm runnin' on Heartbreak Time
I'm fallin' behind
I'm runnin' on Heartbreak Time
