Long Night

Two people, one bed, each facing their own direction
 Remembering what they'd said, each seeking their own protection
 Distant ache from deep within, it echoes like a canyon
 Calling from some lonely place, just like a child who's been abandoned
 Don't you see?
 You're in for a long, long night
 Tossing around 'til the morning light
 And nothing you say would come out right
 You're in for a long night
 No anger, some pain, they don't want to hurt each other
 Each feeling, the same, sometimes you don't need a lover
 Lonely silence marches on, it lingers while you dangle
 Turn it over in your mind, and try another angle
 Still you see...
 You're in for a long, long night
 Tossing around 'til the morning light
 And nothing you say would come out right
 You're in for a long night
 And you wait and you wait and you wait
 For sleep to free you
 Circles round but still it won't come near you
 Your mind is wired, your body's tired
 You've never felt so uninspired
 You're reaching out, but nobody can hear you
 They can't see...
 They can't see...
 You're in for a long, long night
 Tossing around 'til the morning light
 And nothing you say would come out right
 You're in for a long night
 You're in for a long night
 You're in for a long night
