Текст песни Then Came The Night

(Chuck Jones/John Kilzer)

Long legged shadows, Mississippi sunset

She was standing like a candle that hadn't been burned yet

The wind was blowing clouds like ashes

Had my hand in my pocket, reaching for my matches

I can see those cotton sheets a dancin'

On her mama's clothesline in my head

From my lips a lucky strike was danglin'

The day was dying in a sea of red

Then came the night warm and dark

Draggin' it's chains across our hearts

The moon was full, the grass was wet

Making us scream, making us sweat

Holding on tight, it was wrong, it was right

Then came the night

There was a time when love was a flower

Now it's a vine that climbing up the tower

And the river just rolls past the garden

Where love won't grow and the ground is hardened

I can hear the ringing mission bell

Telling of the innocence that's dying

A sound that I remember oh so well

Then came the night warm and dark

Draggin' it's chains across our hearts

The moon was full, the grass was wet

Making us scream, making us sweat

Making us cling, making us claw

Making us rise, making us fall

Holding on tight, it was wrong, it was right

Then came the night

Breath on breath, skin on skin

Can't go back there again

Holding on tight, it was wrong, it was right

Then came the night
