Through This Long Still Night

Where have you been?

I have been waiting up for you

Nothing to do

But lie awake in my bed

Through this long still night.


You shouldn't get so concerned;

You know how these things go

Life happens

You meet a friend

You start talking

Time goes by

Through this long still night.


Don't think I don't know

I can see it

In your eyes

In your breath

In the way you talk;

you don't see me the same way anymore

You have gone somewhere else

Through this long still night.


I am right here,

aren't I?

I am here through this long still night

Wanting you

No more games

I promise

Through this long still night.
