Separate Tables - Lyrics by Chris De Burgh


Lyrics

At separate tables we sit down to eat,
In separate bedrooms we go to sleep at night,
I only wish you knew how much,
You've been on my mind;

I think about you when the morning comes,
I think about you when all my day is done,
Wondering what you are doing now,
Are you lonely too?

Because i - i miss you here tonight,
And i wish you were by my side,
And i don't want to let go;

At separate tables we sit down to write,
The separate letters that never see the light,
If only we could just agree,
To read between the lines;

I want to see you and i know what i will say,
We must be crazy to throw it all away,
Never knowing what is lost,
Before it's all too late;

And i - i miss you here tonight,
And i wish you were by my side,
And i don't want to let go;

Yes i - i miss you here tonight,
And when i hold you by my side,
Well i'm not going to let go.
