I'm waitin’ by the window
How can those stars shine?
Watching how the wind blows
Will it blow you home tonight?

Was it so long ago?
I'd have waited forever
But the strain starts to show
Oh, baby, it's now or never
I can wonder but I can’t sleep

Running out of night
You take your chances
Running out of night
Thinking time will stand still for you
Running out of night
You don't understand
This night might be the last one we have

I try but I take it so hard
There's a ring in my ears
How deep is this dark?
Yeah, you should be here

Well, you say there's no river
I could take you down in
But if words were water
Oh, baby, we'd both be drownin'
Don't you wonder? Don't you dream?

Running out of night
You take your chances
Running out of night
Thinking time will stand still for you
Running out of night
You don’t understand
This night might be the last one we have

Running out of night
You take your chances
Running out of night
Thinking time will stand still this time
Running out of night
You don’t understand

Running out of night
You take your chances
Thinking time will stand still for you
You don't understand
This night might be the last one we have

You take your chances
Thinking time will stand still this time
You don’t understand
This night might be the last one we have

Waitin' by the window
Yeah, you should be here
I take it so hard
Baby, you should be here
Running out of night
Running out of night
