In the dark of the night
Those small hours
Uncertain and anxious
I need to call to you
Rooms full of strangers
Some call me friend
But I wish you were so close to me
In the dark of night
Those small hours
I drift away
When I'm with you

By my side, by my side
I wish you were, I wish you were

Here comes the clown
His face in a wall
No window
No air at all
In the dark of night
Those faces they haunt me
But I wish you were
So close to me

By my side, by my side
I wish you were, I wish you were
By my side, by my side
I wish you were, I wish you were

In the dark of night
Those faces they haunt me
I wish you were so close to me
Yes, I wish you were by my side
