The afternoon has gently passed me by
The evening spreads itself against the sky
Waiting for tomorrow
It's just another day
God bid yesterday goodbye
Bring on the night
I couldn't stand another hour of daylight
Bring on the night
I couldn't stand 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 this yesterday goodbye
Bring on the night
I couldn't stand another hour of daylight
Bring on the night
I couldn't stand another hour of daylight
Bring on the night
I couldn't stand another hour of daylight
Bring on the night
I couldn't stand another hour of daylight
Couldn't stand another hour of daylight
Couldn't stand another hour of daylight
Couldn't stand another hour of daylight
I couldn't stand another hour of daylight
Couldn't stand another hour of daylight
I couldn't stand another hour of daylight
Couldn't stand another hour of daylight
Couldn't stand another hour of daylight
Couldn't stand another hour of daylight
Couldn't stand another hour of daylight
Couldn't stand another hour of daylight
The evening spreads itself against the sky
Waiting for tomorrow
It's just another day
God bid yesterday goodbye
Bring on the night
I couldn't stand another hour of daylight
Bring on the night
I couldn't stand 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 this yesterday goodbye
Bring on the night
I couldn't stand another hour of daylight
Bring on the night
I couldn't stand another hour of daylight
Bring on the night
I couldn't stand another hour of daylight
Bring on the night
I couldn't stand another hour of daylight
Couldn't stand another hour of daylight
Couldn't stand another hour of daylight
Couldn't stand another hour of daylight
I couldn't stand another hour of daylight
Couldn't stand another hour of daylight
I couldn't stand another hour of daylight
Couldn't stand another hour of daylight
Couldn't stand another hour of daylight
Couldn't stand another hour of daylight
Couldn't stand another hour of daylight
Couldn't stand another hour of daylight

You can hear this song and read 2 great poems on the subject (night) from the 1600's which I think complement it.
Thanks for rating me up, dearie.
