FOR YOU ONLY

Ready to embrace the day as we both break
When the light stole in
It found me wide awake
Wasted from a sleepless night
I reach to touch your hair
Withdraw an empty hand
For you're no longer there

In between the silence
Living is an empty space
Save the ticking of a clock
Whose hands are sweeping past its face

And I just don't want to be lonely
Night and day
But as I look around me
I just feel that way
For you only

I turn my hand to something that would clear my head
But I could not forget
The parting words we shared
I opened up my mind to all the pictures I could trace
But I could not recall the contours of your face
And, oh, you slipped away before I had the chance to say
If I did something wrong
Please tell me I'll accept the blame

And I just don't want to be lonely
Night and day
But as I look around me
I just feel that way
For you only

And I just don't want to be lonely
Night and day
But as I look around me
I just feel that way
For you only

For you're no longer there
For you're no longer there

In between the silence
Living is an empty space
Save the ticking of a clock
Whose hands are sweeping past its face

And I just don't want to be lonely
Night and day
But as I look around me
I just feel that way

And I just don't want to be lonely
Night and day
But as I look around me
I just feel that way
For you only

For you only
