Loneliness, no place to hide
There's no need to run when I'm at your side
You're lookin' for something, it's easy to see
You're always changin' things, no, you won't let them beAnd in the still of the night when you're ready to give up the fight
Then you reach for me
In the still of the night, I can take you where you want to be
When you reach for me
In the still of night, I can hold you tight and set you freeYou've been down this road, day after day
You've lived and loved, your work is play
You know your needs and it brings you pity
You do your deeds, yeah, the real nitty grittyAnd in the still of the night when you're ready to give up the fight
Then you reach for me
In the still of the night, I can take you where you want to be
When you reach for me
In the still of night, I can hold you tight and set you freeYou're just a little girl inside
You thought you'd come along just for the ride
And when things didn't turn out the way you want them to be
Well, that's when I feel you reaching for me, yeahAnd in the heat of the night when you're ready to give up the fight
Just come on around, mama, knock on my back door
Then you reach for me
In the still of the night, I can take you where you want to be
When you reach for me
In the still of night, I can hold you tight and set you freeThen you reach for me
In the still of the night, I can take you where you want to be
When you reach for me
In the still of night, I can hold you tight and set you free
