When the Nights Get Long

[Verse 1]

What do you see when you're lit up next to me

But you feel so far?

And it's all so strange that you never saw the change

You just felt something go missing in the dark

[Pre-Chorus]

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

For when the nights get long

[Chorus]

When the nights get long

When the nights get long

[Verse 2]

A couple of words lit up on a screen

Yeah, it's all just make believe

And from what I've heard, there's miles between

What we say and what we mean

[Pre-Chorus]

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

For when the nights get long

[Chorus]

When the nights get long

When the nights get long

When the nights get long

[Bridge]

So I told myself, if I'm given the chance, I won't hold back anymore

I'm not gonna keep it all in, not gonna keep it all in

And I close my eyes and try to hide, but all of a sudden

It's you and me in the middle of it all

[Pre-Chorus]

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

[Outro]

So I wrote you a letter

I turned it into a song

Does that make it better

For 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
