oh the reason the night is long 

is very simple. 

oh i miss you when i'm at work. 

oh and i miss you when we fight, and you leave. 

honey, i confess, i stole your heart. 

and honey, i confess that it was criminal. 

but i've been captured, i'm paralyzed. 

and i've been disarmed by your charm. 



oh the reason the night is long is very simple. 

i imagine, tonight, that we can get along. 

that nothing i can do with you is wrong, tonight. 



but if i'm careful at sunset, if i'm mindful at dawn, 

(clouded minds up north could 

sometimes produce rain and lightning. )

if it's ok to touch you,

it's alright to think "electricity". 



oh the reason the night is long is very simple

maybe it hasn't been so long. 

maybe this dim time is just twilight.
