when i was young i dreamt of days
when i'd be old and far away
i never knew those family fights
would be replaced by lonely nights

lonely nights my lonely nights
i live in them in my blue light
i dream of days when i'll have you
i wonder if your lonely too

out of bed she paints for hours
this girl has had to see the bad
she knows the value of a heart
still she breaks fall apart

fall apart i fall apart
right out of sleep and into dark
and in the dark a dim lit star
that shines right over where you are

lonely nights my lonely nights
i live in them in my blue lights
i dream of days when i'll have you
i wonder if your lonely too

when you walk these lonely streets
if i'm not there think of me
