Late At Night

Late at night When the feeling gets to hard to fight He reaches for the phone Then stops himself afraid that he may find she's not alone Late at night She lies awake and holds her pillow tight And cries his name out loud But she would never ever call The lady's much to proud Two lost and lonely people Living apart and belonging together Regretting that they let each other go oh Two sad and starving people Giving up the chance of forever Never letting one and other know They still need each other so Late at night (at night) Waiting out the hours 'til it's light They know how wrong they've been But both of them are caught up in believing Reaching out means giving in So he hopes that he'll stop hurting And she prays she'll be alright And they both wait for the morning Late at night Two foolish frightened people Giving up a chance at forever Never letting one an other know They still want each other so Late at night Waiting out the hours 'til it's light They know how wrong they've been But both of them are caught up in believing Reaching out means giving in And so he settle down to drinking She takes another pill to keep from thinking And neither makes a move (and neither move) To make it right (right) As they both wait for the morning Late at night
