The night went by slowly
Nothing left but fear
You told me how you missed me
And how you wanted me so near
So near
Time travels so fast
It seemed like only yesterday
You broke my heart when you told me that
You didn't want to stay
Your head was filled with many things
Words with all the hurt it brings
It's all over now
It's time to say goodnight
The night went by slowly
Nothing left but hate
I told you I loved you
But still you slipped away
It's all over now
It's time to say goodnight
We'll carry on the way we were
As long as it still feels right

There was fear because I was scared of losing the guy in question. I thought on those first two lines before I'd even thought about making the song rhyme. Thanx for the comment.

I saw that this was under the lyrics category and i do think that this works really well as a song. the chorus is short but painfully honest. i don't understand why you said "nothing left but fear" though. to me this felt like it was only there because it carried the rhyme. other than that, this would be a really cool song. -alex
