Lyric

In the dead of night, the phone stays still

I’m frozen by the receiver, sighing against my will

Past two a.m., a sudden ring

But I missed the call, and my hand starts to sting

Why does love hurt this way?

Why do we crave it even when it fades?

On nights I want to cry, I search for someone to hold me

I smile, pretending everything’s okay

On nights I can’t cry, the silent phone just taunts me

I speak to empty air, wishing someone would end this pain

At the crowded intersection, people rush by

What are they living for? Why do they try?

I can’t press the gas, I can’t move ahead

While the rain falls, I’m left here instead

At the late-night café, umbrellas forgotten

I wait in the rain, my heart heavy and rotten

Where are you now? I can’t see

Why does love have to feel like this to me?

On nights I want to cry, I search for someone to hold me

I smile, pretending everything’s okay

On nights I can’t cry, the silent phone just taunts me

I speak to empty air, wishing someone would end this pain

Why is the heart so fragile in the dark?

Why do we keep chasing love that leaves a mark?

Every unanswered call, every missed reply

Echoes in the night, and I don’t know why

On nights I want to cry, I search for someone to hold me

I smile, pretending everything’s okay

On nights I can’t cry, the silent phone just taunts me

I speak to empty air, wishing someone would end this pain

The phone stays silent, the night is long

I whisper your name, but it’s just a song

Someone end this lonely love tonight

Before the morning swallows all the light
