Lyrics

[Verse 1]
The afternoon has gently passed me by
The evening spreads itself against the sky
Waiting for tomorrow, it's just another day
As I bid yesterday goodbye
[Chorus]
Bring on the night
I couldn't stand another hour of daylight
Bring on the night
I couldn't stand another hour of daylight
[Verse 2]
The future is but a question mark
Hangs above my head there in the dark
Can't see for the brightness is staring me blind
As I bid this yesterday goodbye
[Chorus]
Bring on the night
I couldn't stand another hour of daylight
Bring on the night
I couldn't stand another hour of daylight
[Instrumental]
Bring on the night
I couldn't stand another hour of daylight
Bring on the night
I couldn't stand another hour of daylight
[Instrumental]
Couldn't stand another hour of daylight
Couldn't stand another hour of daylight
Couldn't stand another hour of daylight
I couldn't stand another hour of daylight
Couldn't stand another hour of daylight
I couldn't stand another hour of daylight
Couldn't stand another hour of daylight
Couldn't stand another hour of daylight
Couldn't stand another hour of daylight
Couldn't stand another hour of daylight
