Long and Lonely Nights
Wes Tillett
Waitin’ for you to smile
Takin’ the longest mile
I broke down just up the lane
Burned out the engine of faith
This might be one of those long and lonely nights
I might not ever get over you
I might not ever get use to callin’ out
To the walls of this empty room
Grinnin’ right through the pain
Sinnin’ with no restraint
Deaf now to every voice
Dumb now in every choice
This might be one of those long and lonely nights
I might not ever get over you
I might not ever get use to callin’ out
To the walls of this empty room
All my prayers seem to get to the ceiling and stop
And I can’t seem to get all the bleeding to stop
There’s a hole in my soul just the shape of you
And the hole seems to grow no matter what I do
This might be one of those long and lonely nights
I might not ever get over you
I might not ever get use to callin’ out
To the walls of this empty room
