Too Many Nights Alone

Brenda Lee · Take Me Back [MCA] [1980]

Midnight flights, night club lights

Travelling for days and nights

Hotel rooms have been my only home

Gave with ease, sad knowing eyes

Old age lines before my time

I guess I've spent too many nights alone.



L.A. games, Denver trains, taxies in the New York rain

Going to every bodies party but my own

Telling myself that love could wait

Now maybe boy, you have come too late

I guess I've spent too many nights alone.



I never let nobody, invoke inside my body

I've never needed somebody till now

And you know I want so much to

Reach out my soul and touch you

I don't know, I know now.



Midnight flights, night club lights

Travelling day and night

The open road has been my home

I'm learning ways to say goodbye

Singing songs that make me cry

I guess I've spent too many nights alone...
