[Verse 1]
         
I got appointm

           
ents, work I h

ave to do
       
Keeping me so 

        
busy all the d

   
ay through
              
They're the th

             
ings that keep

              
 me from think

       
ing of you
         
Ohhh baby, I m

iss you so
  
I know I'm nev

er gonna make 

it
          
Oh, I'm so res

             
tless, I don't

 
 care what I s

ay
        
And I lose my 

        
temper ten tim

     
es a day
              
Still it's eve

             
n worse when t

              
he night's on 

    
its way
            
It's bad, oh, 

   
so bad


[Chorus]
             
Somehow I'd be

           
 doing alright

              
 if it wasn't 

        
for the nights
             
(If it wasn't 

           
for the nights

              
 I think that 


I could make i

t)
             
I'd have coura

           
ge left to fig

              
ht if it wasn'

          
t for the nigh

ts
             
(If it wasn't 

           
for the nights

              
 I think that 


I could take i

t)
             
How I fear the

           
 time when sha

              
dows start to 


fall
           
Sitting here a

         
lone and stari

ng at the wall
             
Even I could s

           
ee a light if 

              
it wasn't for 

    
the nights
             
(Even I could 

           
see a light I 

           
think that I c

ould make it)
             
Somehow I'd be

           
 doing alright

              
 if it wasn't
