Come To Me, Lonely Night

by Twisted Heart   Feb 26, 2007


Come to me lonely night, lie with me, sweet surrender
Upon the edge of heartache's pain, it's touch is still too tender.

Cast shadows in the mind of loss, don't feel that I have gone
I've only slipped away to find a star to cry upon.

As far as my soul reaches in the depth that fights the mind
I travel but a distance for the chance to conquer time

To live again within the dream of innocents sweet kiss
Has been the hope of loving by the breath upon my lips.

But scattered in the darkness of the night I cannot see
The star that's saw me crying for the dawn to set me free.

Now humble is the heart that quakes, Inside the stir of pain
Forever lost and broken by the midnight's torrid rain.

No comfort but the lonely night that greets my heart and soul
And tends the wounds that grips the mind within its gentle hold

It stirs the shadows of the pitch that darkens on the path
And gathers up the pieces of a love that didn't last.

So come, my lonely night, lie with me as I sleep
And make my heart no promises that I know you cannot keep

Just let me lose myself inside the darkness of your hold
As I heal from all the pain that's etched within my soul.

    My favorite stanza by far:

    As far as my soul reaches in the depth that fights the mind
    I travel but a distance for the chance to conquer time
