Call Of The Night Lyrics
I was born when the sun
Had gone from the sky
When the night had its rain
And the day had gone by
Oh yeah
I hear the call of the night
Yeah
I hear the call of the night
And when I was young
With the fever of life
The night cut my soul
Like the blade of a knife
Oh yeah
I hear the call of the night
Yeah
I hear the call of the night
Can you hear it when it’s near
Like a larva without fear
Can you feel it
Can you hear
Oh yeah
I hear the call of the night
Yeah
I hear the call of the night
And when I am old
And ready to die
I’ll fade as the sun
Will fade from the sky
Oh yeah
I hear the call of the night
Yeah
I hear the call of the night
Had gone from the sky
When the night had its rain
And the day had gone by
I hear the call of the night
Yeah
I hear the call of the night
With the fever of life
The night cut my soul
Like the blade of a knife
I hear the call of the night
Yeah
I hear the call of the night
Like a larva without fear
Can you feel it
Can you hear
I hear the call of the night
Yeah
I hear the call of the night
And ready to die
I’ll fade as the sun
Will fade from the sky
I hear the call of the night
Yeah
I hear the call of the night

This was a demo from late 1966. You'll recognize that this song is really similar to another Zombies song called 'Girl Help Me'. 'Girl Help Me' was recorded after the band split and 'Call of the Night' features the original band.
Really a cool song. It's a lot darker than 'Girl Help Me', but maybe that's why they decided to change some lyrics around while keeping the same arrangement. I think I like this version a bit more, but I also like 'Girl Help Me' a great deal also.
