An Empty Room Have I

I love you quite possibly too much
And I wish it was last night
I reach to feel your loving touch
And I wish it was last night

Why do you turn from my love, my touch?
Is this slight an oversight?
I'm alone and I want you so much
And I wish it was last night

You aren't here this darkest of days
And I wish it was last night
Mornings colors have turned shades of gray
Cold slips under the rising light

Now I look around this empty room
And I wish it was last night
I am surrounded with shadows and gloom
And I wish it was last night

I remember how happy I was
And I wish it was last night
I remember how content I felt
And I wish it was last night

But last night will never be again
Your love has fallen from your heart
Perhaps the beach last night never should have been
The breeze that carried us away now blows us apart
