I sit alone, and watch the shadows fall And as the night draws in slowly I recall How things used to be When you were close to me But cryin' isn't any use at all No, cryin' isn't any use at all The long and lonely nights, no friend of mine The long and lonely nights, no friend of mine When the love that you needed has gone You long for daytime When the love that you needed has gone You long for daytime When she was here The night was like a dream But now she's gone from me How empty my nights seem They say when love dies, you never realise What life without her love is gonna mean What life without that woman's gonna mean Long and lonely nights, no friend of mine The long and lonely nights, no friend of mine When the love that you needed has gone You long for daytime When the love that you needed has gone You long for daytime (The long and lonely nights, no friend of mine)
