when the nights get long

What do you see
When youre lit up next to me
But you feel so far
And its all so strange
That you never saw the change
You just felt something go missing in the dark
I wanna write you a letter
I wanna write you a song
I wanna make it better
I wanna write you a letter
I wanna write you a song
I wanna make it better
When the nights get long
When the nights get long
When the nights get long
A couple of words
Lit up on a screen
Yeah its all just make believe
And from what Ive heard
Theres miles between
What we say and what we mean
I wanna write you a letter
I wanna write you a song
I wanna make it better
I wanna write you a letter
I wanna write you a song
I wanna make it better
When the nights get long
When the nights get long
When the nights get long
So I told myself if Im given the chance
I wont hold back anymore
Im not gonna keep it all in
Not gonna keep it all in
Then I close my eyes and try to hide
But all of a sudden
Its you and me in the middle of it all
I wanna write you a letter
I wanna write you a song
I wanna make it better
I wanna write you a letter
I wanna write you a song
I wanna make it better
So I wrote you a letter
Ill turn it into a song
Does it make it better
When the nights get long
When the nights get long
When the nights get long
When the nights get long
When the nights get long
