Standing here eating my heart out waiting 
waiting for the nightboat [bad word] 
watched about a thousand swallows lately 
almost made myself start [bad word] 

want to leave this 
dark place until morning 
want to leave this 
dark town far behind 
shaking loose this 
gloomy bitter feeling 
please don't leave me alone 
please don't leave me alone 
alone with myself tonight 

looking for a friend 
who needs somebody 
don't want to stay on my own 
offer all the gifts I have to give 
a lonely man 
hope is stronger we [bad word] home 

want to leave this 
dark place until morning 
want to leave this 
dark town far behind 
shaking loose 
this gloomy bitter feeling 
please don't leave me alone 
please don't leave me alone 
alone with myself tonight 

want to leave this 
dark place until morning 
want to leave this dark town far behind 
got to find a brand new 
glittering sunshine 
you won't leave me alone 
you won't leave me alone 
a heart made to be mine 

you won't leave me alone 
you won't leave me alone 
alone with myself tonight 
heart made to be mine
