Sweet Is The Night
Electric Light Orchestra When the day is done and there's nowhere to run And the people of the city have all lost and won In your city dress you stand and stare And you smoke another cigarette and comb your hair And the light that shines Paints a trace of sadness On the street I wait But I can't seem to get to you Well, you start to sway, check your Cartier 'Cos it's getting late, you can't afford to wait So you move along where it's going on And the sun that shines And the people of the night are playing 'till the dawn Paints a trace of sadness In your eyes that cry Wishing and hoping Sweet, sweet is the night Oh Now you are near Dark, dark were the days They disappear Sweet, sweet is the night Now you are near Well you did your thing and you lost your wings And you hurt so bad you lost everything And the tears that fall on the city wall Will fade away with the rays of morning light that shines I know Paints a smile across your pretty face Everything is alright Alright Sweet, sweet is the night Now you are near They disappear Dark, dark were the days Now you are near Sweet, sweet is the night Sweet, sweet is the night Dark, dark were the days Now you are near They disappear Now you are near Sweet, sweet is the night Now you are near |
