When The Night Lyrics

When the night lingers in the thunder and rain
It's making me forget my name
And everything I ever know
And baby, when the night turns everything I love into war
Like nothing that I know is for sure
And everything I ever kno-o-ow is so far from home

I wanna know what love is all about
But first I'm going up and then I'm going down
Suddenly it's like I never seen the sun before
And do you see
I wanna feel the lightening in my hand
That underneath it all there's got to be a plan
Then I can understand what the hell I'm looking for

Somehow ended up in love
But I can't believe I wanted this phenomena
Cause I don't ever sleep at all
Stop now, stop you're leaving up again
I can't believe I wanted this phenomena
And I, I hardly need to call

When the night lingers in the thunder and rain
It's making me forget my name
And everything I ever know
And baby, when the night turns everything I love into war
Like nothing that I know is for sure
And everything I ever kno-o-ow is so far from home

I wanna cool my fever in the rain
I'm burning like a moth attracted to the flame
But better that I burn than slowly fade away
And do you see
I wanna feel the lightening in my hand
That underneath it all there's got to be a plan
Then I can understand what the hell I'm looking for

Somehow ended up in love
But I can't believe I wanted this phenomena
Cause I don't ever sleep at all
Stop now, stop you're speeding up again
I can't believe I wanted this phenomena
And I, I hardly need to call

When the night lingers in the thunder and rain
It's making me forget my name
And everything I ever know
And baby, when the night turns everything I love into war
Like nothing that I know is for sure
And everything I ever kno-o-ow is so far from home

Cover art for When The Night lyrics by Annie

A little correction:

In the chorus:

"Like nothing that I know is for sure And everything I ever kno-o-ow is so far from home"

Should be better understood as:

""Like nothing that I've known is for sure And everything I've ever kno-o-own is so far from home"

And the line: "I wanna feel the lightening in my hand" is "I wanna feel the lightning in my hand"

Cheers.
