8. A night's embrace

As the darkness comes,

And the night rises,

Putting me in its pure embrace,

Tears fall on my pale face,

Another day has passed by,

But I am still here,

And I will still be here,

When the sunlight drives away the darkness of the night,

But you won't be there,

You won't smile at me when I wake up,

You won't whisper 'good morning love,

And I will never feel your arms around me again,

Never I will see your beautiful eyes again,

And never again you will wrap me in your arms,

The only embrace I will know now,

Is the sad embrace of a lonely night
