It comes as no surprise
When he said goodbye
It was for the last time
In those empty hours
When you're lonely
Lonely and blue
Believe your head full of lie
Your heart full of truth

To see your face so painted in pain
How it hurts to hear
Your words of desperation
Your love in vain
I will keep you safe here
Console you deep inside
Don't spend another night
Dreaming of days
Dreaming of days gone by

With your heart of darkness
your heart of darkness
your heart of darkness
Don't make me wait too long
For your heart of darkness
your heart of darkness
For your heart of darkness
To move on

Can you catch the stars that
Fall around you
The ghosts inside your head
Or chase away the fears
That stall you
That keep you from yourself
Don't make me wait too long
For your heart of darkness
To move on
Let's move on

It comes as no surprise
It's but a passing phase that pales
I read it in your eyes
In those empty hours
When you're lonely
Broken in two
Could you ever need something
Like I've needed you
