Summary: Buffy dwells for a bit on the subject of Angel.

Only in the Night

I was naïve and young when we first met

And I may still be the same as of yet

But we've been through so much, so many things

It made me wonder what each day would bring

There were trials and there were times I'd wished I were dead

But you always helped me, you were the only thing that made sense in my head

In the daylight I was a no one, just a lonely girl with a lonely life

A lonely existence with far too much strife

But in the night you'd come to take that away

You'd heal my wounds and ease my pain

You gave me a source of life though you had none yourself

I don't think you ever understood how much that would help

You left me for reasons I have yet to understand

And still you come, even if its just to lend me a hand

You're far away in a place that was once my home

You left me here not knowing I'd die this silent death alone

But in the night, when I dream, you come to me

I wish that was how our lives would be

You light all the darkness inside

You made me never want to hide

I have been with many men in my short life

But none of them could ignite the passion you did inside

And why you cause me all this pain I finally know

It's because of all the things we didn't say and never showed

I am just a complicated, lonely girl in the lonely scheme of things

Who fell in love with a lonely, complicated man, not knowing the trouble it would bring

Who just wishes everything could've gone right

And it does….but only in the night
