Night Comes In Lyrics
Night comes in, like some cool river
How can there be, be another day?
Take my hand, oh real companion
And we'll dance, dance till we fade away
Oh, the songs pour down like silver
They can only, only break my heart
Drink the wine, the wine of lovers
Lovers tired of being apart
Dancing till my feet don't touch the ground
I lose my mind in dance forever
Lose my mind in dance forever
Turn my world around
Turn my world around
Oh, this night is like no other
And this room is ringing in my ears
And these friends will never leave me
And these tears are like no other tears
Dancing till my feet don't touch the ground
I lose my mind in dance forever
Lose my mind in dance forever
Turn my world around
Turn my world around
How can there be, be another day?
Take my hand, oh real companion
And we'll dance, dance till we fade away
They can only, only break my heart
Drink the wine, the wine of lovers
Lovers tired of being apart
I lose my mind in dance forever
Lose my mind in dance forever
Turn my world around
Turn my world around
And this room is ringing in my ears
And these friends will never leave me
And these tears are like no other tears
I lose my mind in dance forever
Lose my mind in dance forever
Turn my world around
Turn my world around

One crucial verse—the one which tears apart everything preceding it—was omitted:
I may find that street tomorrow Leave the shadows of my lonely room See my one: my one and only Heart and soul; I'm coming soon
The evocation of deep, meaningful ties—of friendship, and love—remains. But only as an imaginary and desperate hope.
