The Longest Night How long? How long? How long will I have to hold my breath for you? Are those whispers in the shadows or the rustling leaves? There are worse things than ghosts you know haunting these streets The bottle of Tequila and the anger you’ve got on Are only going to keep you warm so long There’s a message on your answer-phone, There’s a message on your phone and it says How long, how long How long will I have to hold my breath for you? We traded accusations and casual abuse We fed each other lies then we started on the truth Until there was nothing left to say There’s a message on your answer-phone, There’s a message on your phone I can’t sit still, my palms are wet, my mouth is dry Expecting sirens and the flash of red-blue lights I’m scared that this is going to be the longest night How long will this go on? How long can this go on? I can’t sit still, my palms are wet, my mouth is dry Expecting sirens and the flash of red-blue lights I’m scared that this is going to be the longest night There’s a message on your answerphone, There’s a message on your phone There’s a message on your answerphone, There’s a message on your phone
