When the day is done And theres nowhere to run And the people of the city Have all lost and won, In your city dress, You stand and stare And you smoke another cigarette And comb your hair And the light that shines Paints a trace of sadness On the street, I wait, I cant seem to get to you.
Well, you start to sway, Check your Cartier Cause its getting late, You cant afford to wait, So you move along Where its going on And the people of the night Are playing till the dawn And the sun that shines Paints a trace of sadness In your eyes that cry, Wishin and hopin.
Sweet, sweet is the night, Now you are near. Dark, dark were the days, They disappear. Sweet, sweet is the night, Now you are near.
Well, you did your thing And you lost your wings And you hurt so bad You lost everything And the tears that fall On the city wall Will fade away with The rays of morning light That shines Paints a smile across Your pretty face I know Everything is alright, alright.
Sweet, sweet is the night, Now you are near. Dark, dark were the days, They disappear. Sweet, sweet is the night, Now you are near.
(Sweet is the night)
Sweet, sweet is the night, Now you are near. Dark, dark were the days, They disappear. Sweet, sweet is the night, Now you are near.
(Now you are near)
