LYRICS: 
 
I went walking down the boulevard 
Past the skateboards and the beggars 
I started looking in the windows 
Just started walking letting my mind roam 
 
If she hung around too much I might take her for granted 
But when I was away she seemed an angel 
The only one who really cared about me 
The only one without and angle 
 
Pre-chorus: 
For so long I've been lonely 
Now I'm too weak to fight 
 
Chorus: 
I've been waiting for tonight  (Goodnight my love) 
I've been waiting for tonight  (Sleep tight my love) 
 
Yes and I had a little time to kill 
Yeah as I crossed the parking lot 
And I was feeling lucky just to have a place to go 
Yeah my nerves were feeling shot 
 
Pre-chorus: 
For so long I've been weary 
There was no end in sight 
 
- Repeat Chorus - 
 
Bridge: 
Oh and I've been waiting 'round  (oh-oh-oh) 
For a night like this  (yeah-ah-ah) 
Yeah I felt it coming down  (coming down) 
Since out first kiss 
 
SOLO 
 
(Goodnight my love) 
 
Yeah and I'm wrestling with my overcoat 
Yeah and I'm fighting with my thoughts 
Yeah I'm gonna trust my intuition 
I'm gonna hope I don't get lost 
 
Pre-chorus: 
For some time I've been lonely 
I've been too weak to fight 
 
- Repeat Chorus x2 - 
 
(Goodnight my love) 
(Sleep tight my love) 
(Goodnight my love) 
(Sleep tight my love)
