When I was young I dreamt of days
When I'd be old, and far away.
I never knew those family fights
Would be replaced by lonely nights.

Lonely nights, my lonely nights,
I live in them, in my blue light.
I dream of days when I'll have you.
I wonder if you're lonely too.

Out of bed she paints for hours.
This girl has had to see the bad.
She knows the value of a heart.
Still she breaks, fall apart.

Fall apart, I fall apart,
Right out of sleep and into dark.
And in the dark a dim-lit star
That shines right over where you are.

Lonely nights, my lonely nights,
I live in them, in my blue light.
I dream of days when I'll have you.
I wonder if you're lonely too.

When you walk these lonely streets,
If I'm not there, think of me.
