It’s a Long long night,
I can only see you my friend,
Nobody else is in sight,
And it’s a long long night…

Darkness of the days,
Have trickled in tonight, 
Leaning on your shoulder,
Giving me the strength tonight- 
( and it’s going to be a long long night )…

My heart is still burning,
(And) I just want to stay,
Holding you warm and tight,
Freezing in this bitter cold cold night…

Through tears in my eyes,
I see the stars,
Twinkling in your eyes,
Moments of joy in this dark dark night…

As long as I have,
(Been) holding your hand,
Feeling this love says,
Everything’s alright- tonight!
(And it’s been a long long night)…

Many years gone by,
Smile on your face is still shy,
Waiting for that ray of light,
It’s been really a long long night…
