Moon, please don't shine on me, help me hide his memory
Stars don't light the midnight sky 'cause you don't want to see me cry
Heart, don't let me think of him, lock your door, don't let his memory in
I feel the cold wind blowin' through a love, like this was meant for two

But it's me against the night and I'm afraid it's a losing fight
I see you in every shadow of the room, you're not here to hold me tight
I can't wait till the morning light, there's no way to win
When it's me against the night

Gone, you said you'd never be and all of you belonged to me
Burning tears fall down like rain, longing for your love again

But it's me against the night and I'm afraid it's a losing fight
I see you in every shadow of the room, you're not here to hold me tight
I can't wait till the morning light, there's no way to win
When it's me against the night, me against the night
