How Many Nights

Golden heart, a fragile soul Yearns for a hand to hold In a world of fleeting lights I spend so many lonely nights Just looking for a spark, a sign A love that truly could be mine I've poured my truth, my tender plea Only to find you're not for me Another empty glance, a fleeting touch Giving so little, wanting so much How Many Nights, must I wait before you hold me? How Many Nights, must I wait before you're here? How Many Nights, must I wait before you say you love me? How Many Nights until you're mine? Until you're mine (How Many Nights) (How Many Nights) They see a face, a fleeting game Never truly learn my name My open heart, a vulnerable truth Exploited, wasted in my youth I offer depth, a boundless grace But find no comfort, no embrace I've poured my truth, my tender plea Only to find you're not for me Another empty glance, a fleeting touch Giving so little, wanting so much How Many Nights, must I wait before you hold me? How Many Nights, must I wait before you're here? How Many Nights, must I wait before you say you love me? How Many Nights until you're mine? (How Many Nights) (How Many Nights) (How Many Nights) Is there a place where true hearts meet? Beyond the shallow, bitter street? My love's a river, deep and wide Just waiting for a place to reside I'm worth more than a passing glance I just need one true, honest chance How Many Nights, must I wait before you hold me? How Many Nights, must I wait before you're here? How Many Nights, must I wait before you say you love me? How Many Nights (How Many Nights) (How Many Nights) Until you're mine How many nights? Just tell me, how many nights?
