Give me back the nights.
Give me back the agony of my solitude
The nights that I've spent alone
The million,endless,solitary nights
Of my life..
Give me all the people I've desired
That never came
Give me back your love
The love which was never really given
And even in the lessons in which you gave
There was the taking..and your surprise...
Of loving someone more helpless than yourself
Give me back the nights...

Give me back the agony
Of the years of this lonely living
Give me back the thousand rejections of my love
Give me back the love, which I deserved
Give me back the time...the lost time
And all the energy and beauty of my youth
Wasted in the wait and spilled out in imitation
When nothing was coming...and the waging...and the waging...
Give me back the nights
When we should have laid together
Building a great temple of our love
Give me back the nights...THE NIGHTS!
The nights,the nights,THE NIGHTS
The LONG,CRUEL,ENDLESS DARK...
Of the nights.
