Lonely Nights (1982)
Pardon me I don't mean to waste your time
I just need someone to talk to if you don't mind
Well I fought the loneliness but tonight I guess I'm just too weak to fight
I can take the lonely days but I can't take these lonely nights

Are you alone tell me what's your name
I just need someone to lean on I'm not playing any games
So sit down here beside me let me buy you a glass of red rose wine
I can take the lonely days but I can't take these lonely nights


I thought I was strong but the nights can be so long when you need a friend
Oh baby maybe we could find a little peace of mind before the morning comes again

So pardon me and if it seems I'm holding on
Letting go it just isn't easy when you're sleeping all alone
So lets forget about tomorrow beg, steal or borrow mmm just a little time
I can take the lonely days but I can't take these lonely nights
Yes I can take the lonely days but I can't take these lonely nights
