bring on the night

The afternoon has gently passed me by
The evening spreads it’s sail against the sky
Waiting for tomorrow, just another day
God bid yesterday good-bye

Bring on the night
I couldn’t spend another hour of daylight

The future is but a question mark
Hangs above my head, there in the dark
Can’t see for the brightness is staring me blind
God bid yesterday good-bye

Bring on the night
I couldn’t spend another hour of daylight
