Lyrics
LONG ARE THE NIGHTS
by Shannon Conley & Dean Holtermann
At seven I think about you,
I check my watch at eight,
A little after nine i grab a bite
Cause i figure you're just running late
The facade slowly crumbles,
Like an ash in the wind,
Cause I'm waiting, playing the fool again
LONG ARE THE NIGHTS
WHEN I WAIT ON YOUR RETURN
LONG ARE THE NIGHTS
AS I ACHE FOR SOMETHING MORE
(Long are the nights- just waiting on your return)
Some small reciprocation,
And I would never have to leave,
But your sweet manipulation
Never shows consideration for my needs
When you play the keyless warden
And I' m begging for your chains,
Don't forget to smile as you hid your pain
LONG ARE THE NIGHTS
WHEN I WAIT ON YOUR RETURN
LONG ARE THE NIGHTS
WHEN I ACHE FOR SOMETHING MORE
(Long are the nights- just waiting on your return)
(Still waiting - just waiting for you)
I'm not waiting playing the fool again,
I can't fake it don't ask me to pretend,
Now I'm fading maybe then you'll understand
You won't love me if I stay, stay,
And let you play these games
instrumental
LONG ARE THE NIGHTS
WHEN I ACHE FOR SOMETHING MORE
(Long are the nights- just waiting on your return)
(Still waiting - just waiting for you)
Long are the nights i'm waiting for you
Long are the nights i'm waiting for you
Long are the nights i'm waiting for you
Long are the nights i'm waiting for you
