| Look out across the fields, see me returning
|
| Smoke is in your eyes, you draw a smile
|
| From the fireplace where my letters to you are burning
|
| You’ve had time to think about it for a while
|
| Well, I’ve walked two hundred miles, look me over
|
| Its the end of the chase and the moon is high
|
| It won’t matter who loves who
|
| You’ll love me or I’ll love you
|
| When the night comes falling
|
| When the night comes falling
|
| When the night comes falling from the sky
|
| I can see through your walls and I know you’re hurting
|
| Sorrow covers you up like a cape
|
| Only yesterday I know that you’ve been flirting
|
| With disaster you somehow managed to escape
|
| Well, I can’t provide for you no easy answers
|
| Who are you that I should have to lie
|
| You’ll know all about it, love
|
| It’ll fit you like a glove
|
| When the night comes falling
|
| When the night comes falling
|
| When the night comes falling from the sky
|
| I can hear your trembling heart beat like a river
|
| You must have been protecting someone last time I called
|
| I’ve never asked you for nothing that you couldn’t deliver
|
| I’ve never asked to set yourself up for a fall
|
| I saw thousands who could have overcome the darkness
|
| For the love of a lousy buck, I’ve watched them die
|
| Stick around, baby, we’re not through
|
| Don’t look for me, I’ll see you
|
| When the night comes falling
|
| When the night comes falling
|
| When the night comes falling from the sky
|
| In your teardrops, I can see my own reflection
|
| It was on the northern border of Texas where I crossed the line
|
| I don’t want to be a fool starving for affection
|
| I don’t want to drown in someone else’s wine
|
| For all eternity I think I will remember
|
| That icy wind that’s howling in your eye
|
| You will seek me and you’ll find
|
| Me in the wasteland of your mind
|
| When the night comes falling
|
| When the night comes falling
|
| When the night comes falling from the sky
|
| Well, I sent you my feelings in a letter
|
| But you were gambling for support
|
| This time tomorrow I’ll know you better
|
| Where my memory is not so short
|
| This time I’m asking for freedom
|
| Freedom from a world which you deny
|
| And you’ll give it to me now
|
| I’ll take it anyhow
|
| When the night comes falling
|
| When the night comes falling
|
| When the night comes falling from the sky |
