I’ve heard the ocean through a shell,
and bought perfume to breathe her smell;
but without sand between my toes
or love to bind my earthly woes,
it’s just another night spent all alone.
I’ve watched a fireplace on TV,
and kissed her pillow, tenderly;
but without flames to warm my bones
or lips to match the love I’ve shown,
it’s just another night spent all alone.
