Night comes down too quickly We both feel empty Night comes too quickly Now we just leave I could say a word or two But I don't think you'd hear I could stay the night with you But you don't really need me to be here Coloured fairground lights ignite In your eyes as you sink Four fathoms down to a safer place Now the storms are coming in Let the moon take you where it will And I'll forget the past I had a dream of a beautiful day But the day could never last Night comes down And says hello to you The night comes down More lights on the shore arrive And they dance in red and blue Masked shadows of the righteous men Are they here for me or you? My hands are tied as I close my mind And tell them it came from love But dark space in my heart will blend With the sky that hangs above When the night comes down And says hello to you The night comes down Night comes down And says hello to you The night comes down
