Alison Moyet - For You Only Lyrics

Ready to embrace the day as we both break.

When the light stole in it found me wide awake.

Wasted from a sleepless night I reach to touch your hair



Withdraw an empty hand for you're no longer there.

In between the silence leaving is an empty space.

Save the ticking of a clock

whose hands are sweeping past its face.



And I just don't want to be lonely

night and day



But as I look around me Ijust feel that way - for you only.



I turn 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 oh

he slipped away before I had the chance to say:

If I did something wrong please tell me

Ill accept the blame.



And I just don't want to be lonely

night and day

. . .

For you only -

And I just don't want to be lonely

night and day

. . .

For you only -



In between the silence leaving is an empty space.

Save the ticking of a clock

whose hands are sweeping past its face.

And I just don't want to be lonely

night and day

. . .

For you only -

And I just don't want to be lonely

night and day

. . .

For you only -
