Lee Vyborny - Tonight I Need a Friend

Evening light falls through the windows Shadows stretch and slowly fade I've been holding on to silence Since the evening turned to grey Come and sit here close beside me Let the quiet do its part I'm not asking for forever Just a soft place for my heart Tonight I need a friend Someone warm against the cold I don't need the whole tomorrow Just a hand that I can hold Let the clock keep ticking onward Let the dark stay where it is All I'm asking is a little Comfort in a world like this Tonight I need a friend Words feel heavy in my throat now Truth's too tangled up to say I've been walking through the evening After the loneliest kind of day You don't have to solve the pieces Or pretend you understand Just stay near until the morning Lifts the weight from off my hands I know the sun will rise regardless Won't last too long But right now this room feels empty And the quiet feels so strong So if you're willing, stay a while Tonight I need a friend Someone warm against the cold I don't need the whole tomorrow Just a hand that I can hold Let the clock keep ticking onward Let the dark stay where it is All I'm asking is a little Comfort in a world like this Tonight I need a friend
