They Suffocate At Night

His body loved her
His mind was set on other things
Keep your face out of sight
And your thoughts to yourselfAnd this went on for several nights
Festering in silence growing in the darkAnd this, they saw as love, love
So sad to see they suffocate at night
Oh this, they saw as love, love
So sad to see, to see it slowly dieShe met his wishes
He found that he had changed his mind
Now the fit is too tight
And the bedroom too warmThe days are filled with things to do
Night-time lies so hollow and memories betrayOh, memories of love, love
So sad to see they suffocate at night
Those memories of love, love
So sad to see, to see it slowly dieTwo years have passed
Two years of emptiness inside
And the gray skies above
Just show how far I went wrongI wonder if she's living there the way that I recall
The way I'll always think of you and when I think of youI think of love, love
So sad to see they suffocate at night
You know, I think of love, love
So sad to see, to see it slowly dieI wrote you a letter, I threw it away
I wrote you a letter, I threw it away
I need her, I know, I don't need her, I need her
