Night



    Night you'll come and cover me
    Cold coffee spills all over me
    It's only hours until the day
    You make it look so far away
    Night you come and sing the songs
    Of birds that have no eyes
    Of birds that never fly
    Of birds that tell me lies
    And the night and I go hand to hand
    Breast to breast
    Woman to woman
    Night and I go quietly
    We go softly
    Screaming all the way
    Night is watching from a tower
    Turns on the electric fence
    A night can make you disappear
    Without a trace of evidence
    Night sounds like a judgement
    And nobody speaks on your behalf
    And you hear yourself calling out loud
    And you hear the night laughing back
    And the night and I go hand to hand
    Breast to breast
    Woman to Woman
    The night and I go quietly
    We go softly
    Screaming all the way
    Night you know how I forgot
    It's only hours until the day
    So hard to remember that
    It's hard to see a night that way
