The night goes on



You and me walking on the land

But we can lose a stare from time in time

‘cos we both get lonely

and it makes me more afraid

as the night goes on.



How long will it take until we know

If we should pray and say I'll let it go

‘cos I feel the danger

that maybe we should try to take it slow

as the night goes on.



And the night goes on

Keeping us waiting, keeping us holding on

‘til we're not afraid of falling in love

and the night goes on

don't let it shake us, just let it make us strong

so we're not afraid of falling in love

and the night goes on.



You and me keep talking heart to heart

But why don't we stop talking and just start

‘cos it makes me restless

can't you see it's tearing us apart



As the night goes on .

And the night goes on .



I see myself when I look in your eyes

Staring back with a look of surprise

At what's going on

Don't turn back you can get away now

We're just a step from ten feet off the ground

We're alright where we belong

And nobody can say where we were wrong.



And the night goes on
