Such A Lonely Night
William Pitt Lyrics

Baby, I can see you
Although I'm not with you, I still picture you in my mind.

Everytime I close my eyes
Your image is ingrained in my memory and I can see you whenever I want.

But I need to touch you
Seeing you isn't enough for me, I need to feel your presence in a physical way.

Everywhere be with you
I want to be by your side no matter where you go.

Baby, you know by the way I speak
Through my words, I express my love to you.

I send you love in a form no-one can see
Even though I'm not physically present, I try to express my love in ways that aren't immediately visible.

But I can't hear your heart
There are some things I can't experience without being there with you, like hearing your heartbeat.

I can't touch your hair
One of the simple pleasures I can't enjoy is touching your hair and feeling its softness.

I can't stand between your eyes and light
I wish I could physically stand between you and anything that might hurt you.

I can't talk to you
I can't have a conversation with you, which leaves me feeling isolated.

I can't hold you tight
Being able to hold you tightly and comfort you is something I sorely miss.

I can't tell you that I'm alright
Without being physically present, it's hard to fully convey my state of mind and emotions to you.

Yes, here I am, I'll be gone in a week
Even though I'm here now, soon I must leave, which is difficult for both of us.

You'll be alright
I want you to know that I have confidence in your ability to manage while I'm away.

And it's like playing hide and seek
Our situation feels like a never-ending game of hide and seek, always searching for each other.

And we'll meet again
We both know that we will be reunited eventually.

It will be like the strangest date
Our reunion will feel a bit surreal and exciting, like we're going on a first date all over again.

And I will swear that I'll be true
I promise to remain faithful to you, no matter what happens.

A man of this fortune to stay in sight
I have much to lose by being away, but it's worth it to be with you.

I can't sleep without you
Without you there in bed with me, I struggle to fall asleep.

I can't concentrate
It's difficult to focus on anything else when I'm not with you.

And I know that you're feeling the same
I sense that you're also struggling being away from me.

Yes, baby, I need you to be where I lay
I wish you could be laying by my side right now.

So I can see love in the break of day
I want to wake up next to you and be reminded of our love.

To wake up beside you in every place
No matter where we are, I'll be happy as long as I can wake up beside you.

Oh, I've got to find a way for this
I need to find a solution to this distance so we can be together.

You say your prayers so sweet
I imagine you in your nightly prayers, sending out good wishes.

And wait for the cat to come and warm your feet
I imagine you cosying up to our cat, trying to stay warm without me there.

And here I am looking for the light switch again
I'm back in my own space, looking for all the things that remind me of you.

Forever in the night
Without you, every night feels like an eternity.

Wherever I might be, I can imagine right
Even though I'm far away, I can imagine being with you and it feels real.

Time to lose, time to lose
We can't waste any more time apart, we need to be together.

And every minute lost can never be retrieved
I can't get back the time we've spent apart, which is why we need to make every moment count.

The world has changed you
We've both been changed by our experiences, especially by being apart.

And now, everything I have tried to
Everything I've done in my life has led me to you.

It's just for you
All that I do, I do it for you.
