Under the cover of the darkest of nights,
I feel safest within your embrace,
You tell me you love me despite all the fights,
But secretly you've packed your case.
Doesn't your heart even want to try?
I know I've not always been kind,
but now I'm alone and all I do is cry,
Why have you left me behind?
Months have now passed and I've had time to think,
I don't know why I was so bitter,
Now that my heart has been pushed to the brink,
I'm anything but a quitter.
The time wasn't right in the heat of the pain,
Though now I feel I must express,
I'd do anything to feel your love again,
Wrapped in your gentle caress.
Change is a thing we all must go through,
We all must learn from our mistakes,
Can we start from somewhere new?
Before my poor heart breaks.

Under the cover of the darkest of nights,
I feel safest within your embrace,
You tell me you love me despite all the fights,
But secretly you've packed your case.
Doesn't your heart even want to try?
I know I've not always been kind,
but now I'm alone and all I do is cry,
Why have you left me behind?
Months have now passed and I've had time to think,
I don't know why I was so bitter,
Now that my heart has been pushed to the brink,
I'm anything but a quitter.
The time wasn't right in the heat of the pain,
Though now I feel I must express,
I'd do anything to feel your love again,
Wrapped in your gentle caress.
Change is a thing we all must go through,
We all must learn from our mistakes,
Can we start from somewhere new?
Before my poor heart breaks.
