This could be the longest night recorded history

And as for sleep, you might as well just cross it off the list of possibilities

Now I'm as brave as the next man

I won't turn and run from a fight

And I could last a million years

If I just get through this night

I could be a novelist

Tell secrets never heard

Pour my soul into each and every sentence

But I just can't find the words

Still I know that you're out there

And you can relate to it all

And I could bear the cold and stormy winter

If I just get through this fall

Don't you know there's no place on this earth

Where you can run to escape the pain of a broken heart

It's useless to spend the time it takes you to try

But can't you see that I'm here

And I'm looking just the same

And I don't know why...

I could be a movie star

The king of Hollywood

Make them cry, dramatically pretending

To keep romance alive

And I would humbly thank my director

And everyone involved from the start

I could blow them all away

If I'd only find the part

If I just get through this night

If I just get through this night
