Long Nights Verse 1 The city lights are fading slow Beyond my window's gentle glow Another evening slips away Like all the words we didn't say I trace your picture with my hand And drift to places we once planned The radio plays soft and low A song from long, long ago Pre-Chorus And every shadow in this room Seems to whisper of you Chorus Long nights, and memories remain Like summer sunshine after rain Your touch still lingers in my mind Though years have left us far behind Long nights, beneath the silver moon The hours always pass too soon I close my eyes and there you are My distant wish, my brightest star Verse 2 We danced beneath the neon skies Young enough to trust our hearts and not ask why Every promise felt so real Every dream we dared to feel Now autumn paints the streets in gold And I am learning to grow old Yet somewhere in the midnight air I still imagine you are there Pre-Chorus And every heartbeat after dark Still carries your spark Chorus Long nights, and memories remain Like summer sunshine after rain Your touch still lingers in my mind Though years have left us far behind Long nights, beneath the silver moon The hours always pass too soon I close my eyes and there you are My distant wish, my brightest star Bridge Perhaps we were a passing flame A beautiful moment without blame But every love leaves something true And part of mine belongs to you Final Chorus Long nights, the stars still shine above Guiding me through thoughts of love Though time moves on endlessly You'll always be a part of me Long nights, until the morning light I'll hold those memories through the night Like echoes drifting from afar My lost romance, my guiding star
