Testo Late at night

Late at night
a candle's burning
my child's asleep
I am yearning
How come you
can't be here right now

untangling my thoughts wondering why
I still have to wait
all that time
why can't you be here
with me tonight?

I know it doesn't help much
to tell you how I miss you
it doesn't even help much to start crying
it doesn't help much to act as if this ain't true
because I'm no good at hiding

how I wish
I could kiss him
how I wish I could breathe his skin
could just melt away in his arms tonight.
