Alison Moyet For You Only Lyrics

For You Only Lyrics

Ready to embrace the day as we both break.
When the light stole in it found me wide awake.
Wasted from a sleepless night I reach to touch your hair

Withdraw an empty hand for you're no longer there.
In between the silence leaving is an empty space.
Save the ticking of a clock
whose hands are sweeping past its face.

And I just don't want to be lonely
night and day

But as I look around me Ijust feel that way - for you only.

I turn my hand to something that would clear my head

But I could not forget the parting words we shared.
I opened up my mind to all the pictures I could trace

But I could not recall the contours of your face.
And oh
he slipped away before I had the chance to say:
If I did something wrong please tell me
Ill accept the blame.

And I just don't want to be lonely
night and day
. . .
For you only -
And I just don't want to be lonely
night and day
. . .
For you only -

In between the silence leaving is an empty space.
Save the ticking of a clock
whose hands are sweeping past its face.
And I just don't want to be lonely
night and day
. . .
For you only -
And I just don't want to be lonely
night and day
. . .
For you only -
