The night is cold; the air feels thin The stars above refuse to spin Your laughter echoes in my ear I wish you were here, I wish you were near I’m shouting your name into the dark A lonely soul with a broken heart The silence roars; it’s crystal clear I wish you were here, I wish you were near The clock hands crawl like they’ve no end Each moment aches; I can’t pretend The moonlight paints your shadow’s trace I reach for you but find empty space The winds they whisper secrets untold They carry memories I cannot hold A phantom touch, a fleeting tear I wish you were here, I wish you were near I’m shouting your name into the dark A lonely soul with a broken heart The silence roars, it’s crystal clear I wish you were here, I wish you were near The dawn will come, but still I’ll say This longing grows with every day Until the sky and time disappear I’ll wish you were here, I’ll wish you were near
