Night Comes Creeping

Day breaks and I don't care

The kiss of light upon the stairs

Is coming to the doorway

But there's nothing out there

Time's stopped within my mind

Same as all the rest behind

Everything has changed while I was sleeping

One day you'll find she's of another mind

And it won't be long until the night comes creeping

Loud voices fill the sky

Strange faces in her eyes

And I'm a stranger now but I just don't know it

The circle closes up too slow

Shining in translucent glow

It's darker now 'cause that's the way she sees it

One day you'll find she's of another mind

And it won't be long until the night comes creeping

Next train to outer space

But of her love there is no trace

The world just turns to silver when you're alone

A different way to bring you down

Falls apart and hits the ground

'Take it from me' they said

So you take it with a trembling hand

One day you find she's of another mind

And it won't be long until the night comes creeping

Ten million directions coming up and coming on strong

These roads run together in my mind's eye

All I'm leaving behind is a river run dry

I'm not stealing your vision, you're just blind
