Deep in the night I see a light
That melts into the dawn
My restless mind feels easy when I lay beside you
Thoughts of the day are drifting away
Like a ship without a sail
Then morning comes around, and you're gone
Now I'm aIone and thinking 0f you
A face within a crowd can't seem to get through
So lonely as I light through the day
As darkness approaches I hear voices say

Wait for the night - that's what my heart reaches for
Wait for the night - to be beside you once more
Wait for the night - why can't you say
Is it the same for you, do you feel it too
Cos I'm all alone, with nowhere else to go
Wait for the night - I'm waiting for the night
Wait for the night - I'm waiting for the night
Back on the street, all over town
Been in so many bars my head's spinning round
I keep on drinking just to get through the day
As darkness approaches I hear voices say

Wait for the night - that's what my heart reaches for
Wait for the night · to be beside you once more
Wait for the night · why can'! you say
Is it the same for you, ' do you feel it too
Cos I'm all alone, with nowhere else to go
Wait for the night - I'm waiting for the night
Wait for the night - I'm waiting for the night
Touching your face, a loving embrace
As tears cloud in my eyes
I'd die before I'd live a single day without you
I need to know the passion that grows
Within those tired eyes
Then morning comes around and you're gone

Wait for the night - that's what my heart reaches for
Wait for the night - to be beside you once more
Wait for the night - why can't you say
Is it the same for you, do you it too
Cos I'm alone, with nowhere left to go
Wait for the night - I'm waiting for the night
Wait for the night - I'm waiting for the night
