Here comes the lonely night,
I can't escape my mind…
From a broken bough
Fall into finite space.
With the roof torn down
This house is an empty place.
So tired of wandering around
And starting over.
No garden grows here now
Just the one leaf clover.
And when the windows shuttered
It's always dark inside.
Sometimes the pain is absurd
Still it's what fate decides.
Thought I saw Jesus come down
Dressed like a soldier.
I used to cry like a clown
And now I'm older.
Here comes the lonely night,
Can't escape my mind.
Here comes the lonely night,
Can't escape my mind…
And the grinding wheel turns,
And the heavens burn,
As the pilot ignites is a lesson learned.
A sullen look of concern,
It might make you sad
Like the fluttering bird in a dream you had.
Here comes the lonely night,
I can't escape my mind.
Here comes the lonely night,
I can't escape my mind…
I saw Jesus come down
Dressed like a soldier.
Once I cried like a clown
Now I'm older.
Here comes the lonely night,
Can't escape my mind.
Here comes the lonely night,
Can't escape my mind…
