When the night comes down

Maybe I'm wrong by the light of day
As long as you can hide in the sun
With all the other guys hanging 'round you, babe
But wait until the day is done

Way down inside you girl
You're nervous like a beast in a cage
Way down inside you girl
You're hiding your needs and your rage, but

When the night comes down
On this blinded earth
When the night comes down
Then you know what you're worth
While a crazy moon
Is calling your name
And you'll follow

Tell me why you locked your dreams away
Tell me why you have no doubt
I think I'll go down to the river, babe
And I'll swim it 'till the stars come out

You know what we did, my dear
When you thought none's watching at all
I've got the time, my dear
To wait in the shade 'till you'll fall, that's

When the night comes down
On this blinded earth
When the night comes down
And you know what you're worth
While a crazy moon
Is calling your name
And you'll follow

When the night comes down
Then it's plain to see
There's no trick, no fakin'
There's no mystery
Just a crazy moon
Calling your name
And you follow

Way down inside you girl
You're nervous like a beast in a cage
Way down inside you girl
You're hiding your needs and your rage

When the night comes down
On this blinded earth
When the night comes down
And you know what you're worth
While a crazy moon
Is calling your name
And you'll follow

When the night comes down
Then it's plain to see
There's no trick, no fakin'
There's no mystery
Just a crazy moon
Bringing you down to your knees
It's bringing you down to your knees

When the night comes down
When the night comes down...
