Ready to embrace the day as we both break.
When the light stole in it found me wide awake.
Wasted from a sleepless night I reach to touch your hair


Withdraw an empty hand for you're no longer there.
In between the silence leaving is an empty space.
Save the ticking of a clock
whose hands are sweeping past its face.


And I just don't want to be lonely
night and day


But as I look around me Ijust feel that way - for you only.


I turn my hand to something that would clear my head


But I could not forget the parting words we shared.
I opened up my mind to all the pictures I could trace


But I could not recall the contours of your face.
And oh
he slipped away before I had the chance to say:
If I did something wrong please tell me
Ill accept the blame.


And I just don't want to be lonely
night and day


For you only -
And I just don't want to be lonely
night and day


For you only -


In between the silence leaving is an empty space.
Save the ticking of a clock
whose hands are sweeping past its face.
And I just don't want to be lonely
night and day


For you only -
And I just don't want to be lonely
night and day


For you only -
