He sits beside her in the evening.
She turns and asks him for a light.
He worked so hard so he`d be something.
Just what it was she never knew.
He lays beside her as she`s sleeping.
She asks if everything`s alright.
Is there a secret he`s been keeping?
She doesn`t know anything he says.
He doesn`t feel anything she says.
I`ve been waiting for too long for love like this
To let it slip away.
I`ve been waiting for your tender kiss.
She says "I just might leave tomorrow."
He says "Tomorrow never comes."
So we`ll just learn to love our sorrow.
I`ll love you tender as you`re sleeping.
I`ll love you bitter through the day.
