And my eyes shut tight as the hours of dark slip away
And I'll drift through dreams till the dawn of the day
When the sun comes up and I'll be here alone
Time plays the same joke again
Where it drags out forever a longer
Moments could last only seconds or shorter
In hose sweet hours when you're here by my side
[Chours]
And all these days are never ending
Oh but twilight through dawn they'll fly
I'll sleep long and well tonight
Because in dreams you're in my sight
And with eyelids shut I'm not lonely anymore
And everything within the world is right
And a voice on wire is a sad replication if best
But the phone is the only means that I have
To bridge the lonely distance back to you
Hang up and long for your touch
Which I've missed now for weeks it's a sign
That being apart isn't easier with time
I can only count the seconds until I'm home
[Chours]
And all these days are never ending
Oh but twilight through dawn they'll fly
I'll sleep long and well tonight
Because in dreams you're in my sight
And with eyelids shut I'm not lonely anymore
And everything within the world is right
I'll sleep long and well tonight
Because in dreams you're in my sight
And with eyelids shut I'm not lonely anymore
And everything within the world is right
