It's close to midnight There's a chill in the air I long to touch you But I don't dare There's a wall between us There's a storm in the air Though you're lying beside me It's like you're not even there When the lightning strikes I don't want to be here When the cold wind bites I don't want to be here Well the days of silence Ooh it hurts me Though we won't be talking I hear every word you say Now the rain is falling Like a million tears Coming through my window To wash away the years When the lightning strikes I don't want to be here When the cold wind bites I don't want to be here Oh can you feel it There's a storm in the air And it's getting nearer When the cloud breaks I don't want to be here To feel the rain Feel the pain There's a wall between us There's a storm in the air Though you're lying beside me It's like you're not even there When the lightning strikes I don't want to be here When the cold wind bites I don't want to be here Oh can you feel it There's a storm in the air And it's getting nearer When the cloud breaks I don't want to be here To feel the rain When the lightning strikes I don't want to be here When the cold wind bites I don't want to be here When the lightning strikes When the cold wind bites Oh baby... I don't want to be here I don't want to be here
