On a night like tonight when there's no one around I don't have any friends in this town Flip through my books, wash my clothes in the sink And it's only one thought I can think On a night like tonight with no concert to play But I'm stuck on the road anyway A hotel room with an ashtray by the bed And I can't get you out of my head
I just wanna sing you a love song Just wanna be by your side I'm so through with these new foreign landscapes I just wanna see your face
On a night like tonight when my passion's been spent I'm just working a job to pay rent To be so far from home to be living my dreams I guess nothing is quite what it seems On a night like tonight when the rain keeps me in I'm so tired of the usual sins
A church bell rings and I'm certain at last That I'm finally done with the past And I know that at home you're still waiting For me to climb up those stairs And I know that you're still hesitating But baby, I'm already there
I just wanna sing you a love song Just wanna be by your side I'm so through with these new foreign landscapes I just wanna see your face
