For You Only - Alison Moyet

Ready to embrace the day as we both break

When the light stole in it found me wide-awake

Wasted from the sleepless night I wished to touch your hair

Withdraw an empty hand for you’re no longer there

In between the silence living is an empty space

Save the ticking of the clock whose hands are sweeping past its face

And I just don’t want to be lonely -no no

Night and day

But as I look around me I just feel that way

For you only

I turned my hand to something that would clear my head

But I could not forget the parting words we shared

I opened up my mind to all the pictures I could trace

But I could not recall the contours of your face

And always slipped away before I had the chance to say

If I did something wrong please tell I’d accept the blame

I just don’t want to be lonely -Night and day

But as I look around me I just feel that way

For you only

For you’re no longer there

For you’re no longer there

In between the silence living is an empty space

Save the ticking of the clock whose hands are sweeping past its face

I just don’t want to be lonely -Night and day

But as I look around me I just feel that way

For you only
