Day after day I do alright I hardly think about you Finding a way each waking hour to live my life without you But when I lay down and I close my eyes and I try to sleep Thought you're not around it's like you're here with me Night after night you stay on my mind Night after night I dream I hold you tight night after night Time after time I meet someone hoping it will last forever But soon I find it's not the same as when we were together I struggle alone to convince myself that I'll be alright Somewhere before dawn I always lose the fight Night after night... Your empty pillow I reach for in the dark Is like the empty place you left here in my heart [ guitar ] Night after night... Night after night...
