Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Hold on

I'll be back for you, it won't be long

But for now there's something else that's calling me

So take me down a lonesome road

Point me east and let me go

That suitcase weighs me down with memories

[Verse 2]

I just wanna be the one you run to

I just wanna be the one you come to

I just wanna be there for someone

When the night comes

Let's put all the cares behind us

And go where they'll never find us

I just wanna be there beside you

When the night comes

When the night comes

[Verse 3]

Two spirits in the night

We can leave before the morning light

When there's nothing left to lose

And nothing left to fear

So meet me on the edge of town

Won't keep you waiting, I'll be 'round

Then you and I

We'll just roll right out of here

[Verse 4]

I just wanna be the one you run to

I just wanna be the one you come to

I just wanna be there for someone

When the night comes

Let's put all the cares behind us

And go where they'll never find us

I just wanna be there beside you

When the night comes

When the night comes

[Verse 5]

I know there'll be a time for you and I

Just take our hands and run away

Think of all the pieces of the shattered dream

We're gonna make it out someday (Make it out someday)

We'll be coming back

Coming back to stay, oh

[Verse 6]

(Oh, when the night comes)

I wanna be the one you run to

(Oh, when the night comes)

To be the one you'd come to

(Oh, when the night comes)

I wanna be the one you run to

(Oh, when the night comes)

Oh!

[Verse 7]

(I just wanna be the one you run to)

(Wanna be the on you come to)

I just wanna be there for someone

When the night comes

Let's put all the cares behind us

And move where they'll never find us

I just wanna be there beside you

When the night comes

When the night comes

[Verse 8]

(Oh-oh, when the night comes)

When the night rolls down

(Oh-oh, when the night comes)

I wanna be with you

(Oh-oh, when the night comes)

Oh, when the night comes

(Oh-oh-oh) Oh

[Verse 9]

(Oh-oh, when the night comes)

When the night comes

(Oh-oh, when the night comes)

I wanna be right by your side

(Oh-oh, when the night comes)

Yes, baby

(Oh-oh)
