I must sleep another night without you.

These nights seem to go on endlessly.

I lay and wonder do you miss me too?

the night never ends, mercilessly.

How does life go on without you here?

How can I possibly still do this?

Time rolls away like a simgle tear.

Slowly through this endless dreaded bliss.

How can I make it through this whole night

Without having you here by my side?

The truth comes liek the frost's first bite,

Such things from which you'd run and hide.

When will I get to see you again?

That's all I can seem to ask myself.

Not today, not tomorrow, but when?

For now, emotions left on the shelf.

I long to feel your soft, gentle kiss.

And, oh, to feel just one sweet embrace,

I would give up everything for this.

And to feel the contours of your face.

I long for you the rest of my life.

I fly away on the wings of a dove,

To get away from all my strife.

I just want to say, goodnight, my love.
