You should know I'm no stranger
To the cold bitter nights alone
Living without a lover

Has chilled me to the bone

(Chorus)

He don't need you
He mistreats you and I
Should be there by your side


You should know I'm no stranger
To the darker side of emotion

I'm quite accustomed
To the feeling of other people's torture


(repeat chorus)

He don't love you

Like I love you and I
Should be there by your side


(bridge)
And when the silver December moon
Has come to steal the life from you

You know I will be there

(repeat chorus)
