When the nights get the best of me
I turn on the lights and the tv
Just for company
And all the world
It seems much colder now
As darkness comes to cover me

Then thoughts of you
They take me over
I see your face again
Over and over

Baby, when I think about you
I get lonely, when I'm not around you
Baby, I'll get by this time
And I'll be alright
When love comes down

When my world's about to overflow
I turn to you unconsciously
There's no reply
No one calls my name
It's a loneliness
That you can't know

Then the dreams
That take me over
Keep bringin' you back to me
Over and over

Baby, when I think about you
Baby, my love's all around you
Baby, I'm on fire this time
But I'll be alright
When love comes down

I search the nights for you in vain
But still the emptiness remains
Cause only your love lifts me
Higher and higher

Then the dreams
That take me over
Keep bringing you back to me
Over and over

Baby, when I think about you
Baby, my love's all around you
But baby, I'll get by this time
And I'll be alright
Oh, I'll be alright
When love comes down
