Rainer Maria lyrics - The Reason the Night Is So Long

album: Look Now Look Again (1999)
genre:

oh the reason the night is long 
is very simple. 
oh i miss you when i'm at work. 
oh and i miss you when we fight, and you leave. 
honey, i confess, i stole your heart. 
and honey, i confess that it was criminal. 
but i've been captured, i'm paralyzed. 
and i've been disarmed by your charm. 

oh the reason the night is long is very simple. 
i imagine, tonight, that we can get along. 
that nothing i can do with you is wrong, tonight. 

but if i'm careful at sunset, if i'm mindful at dawn, 
(clouded minds up north could 
sometimes produce rain and lightning. )
if it's ok to touch you,
it's alright to think "electricity". 

oh the reason the night is long is very simple
maybe it hasn't been so long. 
maybe this dim time is just twilight.
