He Belongs to the Night

I fell fast and I fell hard

I saw what's real through the shadows in the dark

He fell slow, but he fell hard

On a concrete road down the boulevard

And just like me, he couldn't get up

But he wasn't on love, he was on a drug

He drinks till dawn and that's all that he knows

Here, then he's gone, I don't know where he goes

I know I can't keep him and I know it's not right

I know I can't love him, he belongs to the night, yeah

He belongs to the night, yeah

You can't save someone who don't wanna be saved

I know he can't love me, he don't know how to change

Picks up the bottle and I'm struggling again

He needs his addiction just like I need him

There's something telling me not to walk away

The smoke on his breath, the grin on his face

The sun's gonna come and you're not gonna stay

See you tomorrow night, we'll do the same damn thing

He drinks till dawn and that's all that he knows

Here, then he's gone, I don't know where he goes

I know I can't keep him and I know it's not right

I know I can't love him, he belongs to the night, yeah

He belongs to the night, yeah

He drinks till dawn and that's all that he knows

Here, then he's gone, I don't know where he goes

I know I can't keep him and I know it's not right

I know I can't love him, he belongs to the night, yeah

He belongs to the night, yeah

I fell fast and I fell hard

I saw what's real through the shadows in the dark
