The cold hands   The sad eyes   The dark Irish silence   It's so late   But I'll wait   Through the long night with you   With you      The warm tears   The bad dreams   The soft trembling shoulders   The old fears   But I'm here   Through the long night with you   With you      Oh, what has it cost you   I almost lost you   A long, long time ago   Oh, you should have told me   But you had to bleed to know      All your past sins   Are since past   You should be sleeping   It's all right   Sleep tight   Through the long night with me   With me      No, I didn't start it   You're broken hearted   From a long, long time ago   Oh, the way you hold me   Is all that I need to know      And it's so late   But I'll wait   Through the long night with you   With you
