I heard your song tonight, they played it on the late, late show
Closed my eyes to hide the tears, tears cried long ago
Your memory closed around me as I heard the DJ say
This song's for those who lost their love somewhere along the way
The night is long and I'm alone, your song still lingers on
I hear the words you wrote for me, I touch them and they're gone
I thought it all was in the past, the gentleman's
And faith, now hurt is flooding over me like gentle summer rain
I'm glad to see you've made it babe, you paid the price and more
Wish I'd known then what I know now, but then I was so sure
Nights on the road, days grey and cold, strangers shaking hands
You gave me all you had to give, I didn't understand
The autumn leaves have fallen and the trees are setting bare
Just like my life without your songs
Without your loving care
I need you here to hold me tight
Babe, I'm feeling low
You know I heard your song tonight, they played it on the late, late show
The night is long and I'm alone, your song still lingers on
I hear the words you wrote for me, I touch them and they're gone
I hear the words you wrote for me. I touch them, then they're gone. I thought it all was in the past, the tenderness and pain. The hurt is flooding over me like gentle summer rain.
The night is long and I'm alone. This song still lingers on. I hear the words you wrote for me. I touch them, then they're gone.
I thought it all was in the past, the tenderness and pain. The hurt is flooding over me like gentle summer rain.
This song still lingers on.
