Welch Bob Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Yeah here comes the night, isn't it exciting
All your fantasies come true, oh yeah
When it's dark enough, promises of love
Thing we've never even try to do

[Chorus:]
Here comes the night
Here comes the night
Here comes the night...

Wonder what she's like, you'll find out to tonight
She's still in the dark like you, oh yeah
Cities come alive, painting made of life
Oh the magic that the night can do

[Chorus]

The sun is set, oh yeah
Twilight, all right
Here comes the night





[Chorus]
