|
It was the night, it was the night before, |
|
It was the night before we met, |
|
I sat alone right by the phone, |
|
It was the night, it was the day, it was the day you came, |
|
It was the day you came my way, what can I say? |
|
You came to stay, it was the day. |
|
There's a storm, outside my window, |
|
Flashes in the sky, what a night |
|
I hear the voices calling, |
|
And I see the people running in the light, |
|
All this craziness I'm feeling just reminds me |
|
Rhat it really can't go on, |
|
And I want so much to tell you |
|
But the number you have given me is wrong. |
|
It was the night, it was the night before, |
|
It was the night before we met, |
|
I sat alone right by the phone, |
|
It was the night, it was the time, it was the time we had, |
|
It was the time we had to live, our time to give |
|
To be happy with, it was the time. |
|
I'm sitting in my room with the silhouetted moon in my eye, |
|
I stare into the darkness, and I see the planets hanging in the sky, |
|
And this temporary feeling is just telling me I've seen it all before, |
|
But the penetrating madness of the nightly news I really can't ignore. |
|
It was the night, |
|
We were drawn to the light, |
|
We were climbing higher, |
|
It was the day when we all came to say, |
|
We were on fire - it was the night. |
|
There are lovers on the roof, |
|
They are waiting for the proof they can see, |
|
There's an answer on its way |
|
It was due back here today, to be free |
|
And I thought that I should tell you |
|
That you're just another image of my mind, |
|
But you need to keep it secret |
|
'cos these days secrets are so hard to find. |
|
It was the night, it was the night before, |
|
It was the night before we met, |
|
I sat alone right by the phone, |
|
It was the night, it was the day, it was the day you came, |
|
It was the day you came my way, what can I say? |
|
You came to stay, it was the day, |
|
It was the time, it was the night. |
