The Night Comes Down
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
When I was young it came to me
And I could see the sun breaking
Lucy was high and so was I dazzling
Holding the world inside
Once I believed in everyone
Everyone and anyone can see
Oh oh the night comes down
And I get afraid of losing my way
Oh oh the night comes down
Ooh and it's dark again
Once I could laugh with everyone
Once I could see the good in me
The black and the white distinctively
Coloring, holding the world inside
Now all the world is gray to me
Nobody can see
you gotta believe it
Oh oh the night comes down
And I get afraid of losing my way
Oh oh the night comes down
Ooh and it's dark again
And it's dark again
And it's dark again
