Night-time is so lonely When you hear a sound But it's only an empty heart Beating on through the night A sad, sad drum And I'm lying here listening And the raindrops are all glistening In my dreams And it seems That the sun never comes And I want my sad reflection To go drifting through the skies To be in your eyes
And I'm waking to this aching And it's breaking me in two All the space All the waste All the distance between me and you And the people with their voices Random choices will they ever learn To really see Really be on fire when their spirits burn I want the person inside me To be someone I'd recognize If he was in your eyes
So I'm waiting, contemplating Relocating a faded image in my thoughts But the memories are like clouds Try so hard But they never can be caught But I'm trying, yes I'm trying But I'm only lying in the dark So alone On my own No one home And if love was worth a fortune Then I'd need a rise To be in your eyes
I want these words to be the things I hoped you'd realized To be in your eyes
