Текст песни The Longing (Live) - Tom Beck

It's the light you see underneath the door
And the shadow of the footsteps on the floor
The hang-up call that you can't ignore
It's the face across the room that makes your heart beat fast
And your own reflection in the bottom of a broken glass
Just like the night before

And the noisy clock aside your bed
Even with the pillow wrapped around your head
The voice inside that won't shut up
The poundin in your chest
That just won't stop

It's hard to lose the love we make
Can't take the longing
We won't forget, we might forgive
We don't outlive the longing

It's the time you spend at the matinee
'Cause you can't go home where you have to face
The stupid life half lived and the other half not worth living
You turn on the light but it's still pitch dark
And the writing on the wall is a question mark
You don't know where and you don't know when
But if you'll ever have the strength to try again

It's hard to lose the love we make
Can't take the longing
We won't forget, we might forgive
We don't outlive the longing

The wanting
The needing
The feeling of the reaching for the rest of your life

It's hard to lose the love we make
Can't take the longing
We won't forget, we might forgive
We don't outlive the longing

Ohhh the longing
