The Night Goes On Lyrics

Did you ever hear the whisper
Of the night as it rolls in
Distant as the moon
And yet it gets beneath your skin
Gets around the promises of no never again
Suddenly it takes the shape
Of an old familiar friend
And oh the night goes on

You reach for your last cigarette
And yeah you ought to quit
You ought to do a lot of things
But sometimes you forget

And still the night is calling
So you take a drive around
And over that horizon is an old familiar town
And oh the night goes on
Oh the night goes on
Ooh ooh the night goes on

When old voices dance through your head
Where you could run from the things that they said
And how could you say let 'em go walk away
Oh no not today
You never run away when you can stay and fight today

And oh the night goes on
Oh the night goes on
When old voices dance through your head
Where you could run from the things that they said
And how could you say
Let 'em walk away
Oh no
Not today

Did you ever hear the whisper
Distant as the moon
And yet it gets beneath your skin

And oh the night goes on
Oh the night goes on
Oh the night goes on
Oh the night goes on
