I Need The Night

There is a voice, it is chastizing me
I was so cold, what had become of me?
Take all your limbs and wrap them round your neck
So they all laugh at your predicament
All of the boys and girls, all people in this world
Give me a dream and I will give you my word
I need the night
And I need this drink
Will you sit with me
And bring all of your friends
Chase the morning light
Till all of this ends
There's a whisper that our God is a she
She sits on high over the land and the sea
Her breast is heavy in a brand new world
Tell your grandmother and your boys and your girls
She's got a brand nеw favourite
Tell all the shrinks and hatеrs
Give her a dream and she will give you her word
I need the night
And I need this drink
Will you sit with me
And bring all of your friends
Chase the morning light
Till all of this ends
I need the night
And I need this drink
Will you sit with me
And bring all of your friends
Chase the morning light
Till all of this ends
When I realized that I never loved them
That the ones before just held me down
And caused me problems
You say that the way you see me
The way you hold me high
Tell me that you love me and let these days turn cold as night
I need the night
And I need this drink
Will you sit with me
And bring all of your friends
Chase the morning light
Till all of this ends
I need the night
And I need this drink
Will you sit with me
And bring all of your friends
Chase the morning light
Till all of this ends
