THE LONELY NIGHT

My heart is lonely
longing for the one who will be with me
all through the night.
My life is empty
waiting for the one who will be near me
But there is no end in sight -
To the lonely night.

I could just leave here
Never looking back on all the dark fears
that cling to me tonight.
But...could I leave you?
Never knowing love that could be so true?
But there is no hope in sight
In this lonely night.

And will you hold me?
Telling me your love is for me, only -
Just for one night.
Then you will hold me
Promising I'll never be so lonely
But there is no love tonight
In this lonely night.

But...will you love me?
Telling me that everything will be right?
'Cause there is no love tonight...
In the cold, lonely night.
