I Tremble For You

This world that I live in is empty and cold

This loneliness cuts me and tears at my soul

I'm no child of destiny, no fortune's son

I've just chased you so long now, I'm too weak to run



So here I return to a back street of thrills

Back to any warm shoulder till she's got her fill

And then I treat shame like an old friend from home

That I can lean on till the misery is gone



A new day is here yet nothing is new

You're still gone and I tremble for you



I cry out at bedtime no, please not tonight

But again there's your footsteps and I turn on the light

Of course you're not there, no, you never are

Then I try to forget that there's always a bar



And well, I win that battle, yes, sometimes I do

But sleep doesn't come when I tremble for you
