Lyrics

I nev er ask you where you go

af ter I leave you in the morn ing.

We go our dif f’rent ways

to sep ’rate sit u a tions.

It’s not (C)that eas y an y (F)more

To day I do what must be done.

I give my time to to tal stran gers.

But now it feels as though

the day goes on for ev er,

more than (C)it ev er did be (F)gone.

(F)fore.

Un til the (Bb)night, un til the night, whoa,

I (G)just might make it.

Un til the night, un til the night,

(F)when (G)I see you a gain.

Mm

mm mm mm mm mm

(C)mm mm.

When the sun goes down and the day is o ver,

when the (C)last of the light has gone.

As they pour in to the (Eb)street I will be get ting clos er.

As the (G9sus)cars turn their head lights on.

As they’re clos in’ it down, I’m gon na o pen it up.

And while they’re go in’ to sleep, we’ll just be (G)start ing to touch.

I’m just be gin ning to feel, I’m just be gin ning to give, I’m just be gin ning to feel, I’m just be (G)gin ning to live.

Be fore I leave you a gain, be fore the light of the dawn, be fore this eve ning can end, I have been (G)wait ing so long.

Un til the night, un til the night, whoa,

I (G)just might make it;

Un til the night, un til the night, whoa,

I’ll (G)just keep hold in’ on.

Un til the night, un til the night

when (G)I see you a gain.
