I thought I was healin' up
I was doin' fine, I felt like, I haven't felt
in a long, long time
But its funny how life
Can put you in a place where you been before
and leave you lying there like a beggar, knockin' on the door
I thought I, had escaped this pain in my heart
But it knew right where to find me
Like a ghost in the dark

That's why I hate nights like this
It makes me want to be in love
I hate nights like this
When you can count the stars above
And there's no one to kiss
I hate nights like this

Its alright, I'll be ok
I'll just wait for the clouds
Hit my knees, pray for rain
Just fall down
Maybe the moon wont be so bright
when it stairs into the sun
It'll know I got even when the morning comes
But I'll just deal, with what I'm dealt
Cool wind in my hair
Standin' here waves crashin' in
and the clean smell of salt air

I hate nights like this
It makes me want to be in love
I hate nights like this
When you can count the stars above
And there's no one to kiss
I hate nights like this
You know I hate nights like this
It makes me want to be in love
I hate nights like this
You can count the stars above
And there's no one to kiss
I hate nights like this
