Love Doesn't Always Come (On the Night It's Needed)

I just saw the sun go down behind a purple sky

Watched the daylight slowly fade and die

Saw two lovers close their door and turn out their bedroom light

Wishin' you were here with me tonight

Picked up a book and tried my best to read it

But love doesn't always come on the nights you need it

Lyin' here I feel so lost in this big king-size bed

Reached down and ran my fingers cross the satin spread

Thought of how it felt to lay my head upon your chest

Lord I've never felt such loneliness

Nights like this I feel I'm bein' cheated

But love doesn't always come on the nights you need it

On the nights I need you so what do I do where do I go

I need you to make me feel completed

But love doesn't always come on the nights you need it

No love doesn't always come on the nights you need it
