Here Comes the Night

Here comes the night
Slowly comes the night
Ebony promises
Precisely delivered--
Doesn't tell you it loves you
Doesn't tell you it needs you,
Makes no advances
Makes no vows;
Here comes the night,
Slowly comes the night....

Here comes the night
Silently comes the night
Black whispers
Carefully delivered--
Doesn't say it wants you
Doesn't say it craves you,
Voices no proposals
Voices no lies;
Here comes the night,
Silently comes the night....

Here comes the night
Surely comes the night
Dark embrace
warmly delivered--
Doesn't mean it will stay
Doesn't mean it will settle,
Holds no remorse
Holds no answers;
Here comes the night,
Surely comes the night.
