Night After Night

Darling, I loved you,

I long to become you

And know what it is that you gave

We dance the sorrow

Forgive me tomorrow

I pray

Night after night, day after day

Would you watch my body weaken

My mind drift away?

Dear lover forsaken

Our love is taken away

You were my speaker

My innocence keeper

I don't

Night after night, day after day

Would you watch my body weaken,

My mind drift away?

Dear lover forgiven

My love is driven by rage

Oh I should just leave you

Instead I've deceived you

But I don't

Night after night, day after day

Would you watch my body weaken

My mind drift away?

I count no one, hold nobody's ear

I sold you my hand once and you hit me in fear

I don't stand for the devil

I don't whisper in ears

I stand on the mountains and call people to hear

It's a sudden burst of light

It's a fate foretold

It is knowing, it is knowing

He longs for the answers, as all of us must

He longs for the woman who will conquer his lust

He screams in the night, I scream in the day

We weep in the evening and lie naked and pray

Night after night, day after day

Night after night, day after day

Could you watch my body weaken

And my mind drift away?

It's a tempting communion

It's a fate foretold

It is knowing, it is knowing

What it is that you're told
