Shadows flicker on the wall
As the dusk begins to fall
And lonely is an ache
That just won’t go away
I cover up to stop the chill
That numbs my skin
Looking for some comfort I can find
To hold unto until the morning light
Looking for some small mercies, small mercies in the night
I see a face blurred in my head
A stranger or someone I’ve met
Another lost soul come to lie
On the pillow next to mine
Only longing for a tender touch
Someone to love
Looking for some comfort I can find
To hold onto until the morning light
Looking for some small mercies, small mercies in the night
Not meant to be, never written in
The stars, in the stars
Maybe a dream that I make real
In the dark, in the dark
Looking for some comfort I can find
To hold onto until the morning light
Looking for some small mercies, small mercies in the night
Looking for some comfort I can find
To hold onto until the morning light
Looking for some small mercies, small mercies in the night
Looking for some small mercies, small mercies in the night
