On A Long Night
Can you hear my heart beating?
It’s playing out this tune…just for you.
And are you lonely little girl?
Cause I’ve been lonely too.
And the long hard days, they just strip away,
All…that we are
And the games life plays, they just strip away,
All…that you own
So put a candle in your window darlin’
And pull those shutters down so tight.
I can see the storm clouds rolling in.
And I know it’s gonna be…
It’s gonna be a long, long night
And it’s alright, on a long night…
When you feel you can’t go on
Oh baby, hold tight, for the daylight…
We’ll just let love lead us home.
Save a dance for me, my darling
They’re playing out this tune…just for you.
So don’t be lonely little girl…
Cause this beating heart…beats for you.
And that long walk home, won’t be walked alone,
But hand in hand and step by step
And life’s little house of cards, we can build upon two hearts
Arm in arm and evermore…
