(eric carmen) I can't begin to count the times I have been by myself I lie wake my lonely room Tells me there's no one else No one else I reach for the light It shines above my head Reveals the bed that you're not in I reach for the light It shines across the room And brings to mind what might have been I tell myself I'm better off No one can have me now I see your crumpled photograph It makes me laugh aloud Laugh aloud I reach for the light It shines above my head Reveals the bed that you're not in I reach for the light It shines across the room And brings to mind what might have been And I wish I could forget How good you looktonight When you smiled at me And walked away with him Ohoh no! I reach for the light It shines above my head Reveals the bed that you're not in I reach for the light It shines across the room And brings to mind what might have been I reach for the lightnow (I reach for the light) I tell myself I'm better off No one can hurt me now (I reach for the light) I see your crumpled photograph It makes me laugh aloud (I reach for the light) I lay wake my lonely room Tells me there's no one there (I reach for the light)
