new nights
every second is an hour
every minute oh it suffers me its speed
every hour tears me asunder
and anything longer is an insult to my heartbeat
every moment it strikes me deeper
that I step in time to no one on the streets
and you walk so far ahead now
it’s a pace that even running I can’t keep
hey wait please wait
I don’t want you to leave
hey wait please wait
aren’t you forgetting about me?
every morning is a murder
there’s my body and it’s
spread out on the sheets
and every afternoon is a terrible surprise
that the day would dare to continue
the day would dare to continue
the day would dare to continue
without you by my side
oh the nights
oh the nights
oh god the nights
hey wait please wait
I can’t take it if you leave
hey wait please wait
don’t go without me
don’t go without me
