                                                                   at night

                                                                   all i can think of is you

                                                                   i know
                                                                   you're still the one
                                                                   because you're still in my heart
                                                                   it still feels connected to yours
                                                                   it still flutters
                                                                   at the mere sight of your name
                                                                   hearing your voice
                                                                   at the other end of the line
                                                                   it still drums out madly
                                                                   at night
                                                                   all alone
                                                                   it still calls out to you

                                                                   can you hear it?
                                                                   will you answer its call?

                                                                   i know
                                                                   our love still matters to me
                                                                   because at night
                                                                   all alone
                                                                   in my room
                                                                   something deep inside tells me
                                                                   i still love you
                                                                   something deep inside tells me
                                                                   it's always been you
