I Cry at Night Lyrics
this house that I live in
has no reason
this house that I sleep in
has no purpose
it has a bed
and a few old chairs
three flights up
two flights of stairs
but it has no reason
the sun once shone through the tyre swing
the dogs barked and bayed in the winter and spring
and the ivy
that hung now sadly clings
to a dying season
and I cry at night when the lights go out
and the green eyes fuse and the full moon shouts
from road maps and red lines
to lipstick lies
and when the lights go out it's tough to
survive
this man holds a hand
that shows a tremble
this man that I live in has his faults
he has a heart
and a well-worn soul
ten years a slave
to rock and roll
but he has to tremble
for the yellow grass on the sun-burnt lawn
sleeps in her seed from the sunset to dawn
and just like your love that's come and gone
it goes on breathing
and I cry at night when the lights go out
and the green eyes fuse and the full moon shouts
from road maps and red lines
to lipstick lies
and when the lights go out it's tough to
survive
and when the lights go out it's tough to
survive
