Through the Long Night
The cold handsThe sad eyesThe dark Irish silenceIt’s so lateBut I’ll waitThrough the long night with youWith you
The warm tearsThe bad dreamsThe soft trembling shouldersThe old fearsBut I’m hereThrough the long night with youWith you
Oh, what has it cost youI almost lost youA long, long time agoOh, you should have told meBut you had to bleed to know
All your past sinsAre since pastYou should be sleepingIt’s all rightSleep tightThrough the long night with meWith me
No, I didn’t start itYou’re broken heartedFrom a long, long time agoOh, the way you hold meIs all that I need to know
And it’s so lateBut I’ll waitThrough the long night with youWith you
