Long Dark Night

My nights are so long,
Our love has gone wrong,
You won't look at me,
Oh God I can't see,

Why the nights are so cold,
And I feel so old,
There is no remedy in sight,
For this long dark night.

Only darkness before me,
Oh God I can't see,
How can I make love right?
And end this long dark night.

G'day Timothy … simply a poem of a sleepless night that reflects on many. I think people can change over time and sometimes it appears not for the better of a relationship - catch you soon Timothy - Lindsay
