Great White › Lyrics › Silent Night

Every now and then I like to pick up the phone
And make a call down memory lane
Well how you been? Well, baby you could say
I've been lonely too

I've been pickin' up the pieces ever since the day
I left you sleepin' on the motel road
I heard you had two kids, got married
It was quite the show

You're my one stone true regret
As I'm lyin' alone in my bed, on this silent night

I say a little prayer for you on this silent night
I send this message through, I was wrong to run
Shoulda took a little time for life
'Cause loneliness is no repayment for sacrifice
I'm doin' time in paradise, on this silent night

I remember how we touched, we were young in love
Didn't know what was wrong or right
We just stuck to each other
Like the earth sticks to the sun

Yeah, you taught me how to laugh, I learned how to cry
It was easy as one, two, three
We were lucky and wild back then
Just happy to be

Now I think about you with desire
And my heart's still full of fire, on this silent night

I say a little prayer for you on this silent night
I send this message through, I was wrong to run
Shoulda took a little time for life
'Cause loneliness is no repayment for sacrifice
I'm doin' time in paradise, on this silent night

In my mind, I see the wind blow through your hair
I have a photograph of you and I somewhere
Painting pictures of the life that we would share

I wear this badge of sorrow but how was I to know
I found the truth comes easy when you live in the light
I guess it only goes to show
So you think, I'm crazy 'cause I feel this way

Gonna pick myself up off the ground
And I'll turn it around, on this silent night

Yeah, I say a little prayer for you on this silent night
I'm gonna send this message through, I was wrong to run
I shoulda put a little more in the life
'Cause loneliness is no repayment for sacrifice
I guess it's time to say good-bye, on this silent night
On this silent night, on this silent night
