The night is so long alone here without you
No one warned me I'd feel this way or told me what to do
So I keep trying to drive you from my mind
Cause the minutes seem like hours getting longer all the time

Chorus:
It's such a long lonely night, without you holding me
It's such a long lonely night you know its gonna be
Such a long lonely night that's never gonna end
Till the long night is done, and I have you back again

Thought of you not here is more than I can stand
I try to block it from my mind and try to understand
How the night can be so old, when it's yet begun to start
And even though we can't be face to face, you're with me heart to heart

Chorus:
It's such a long lonely night, without you holding me
It's such a long lonely night you know its gonna be
Such a long lonely night that's never gonna end
Till the long night is done, and I have you back again
