The Night is Gonna Take You
The sun is gonna set on my parade
The night is gonna take you far away
A sudden change
I know because you care you wouldn’t say
But the night is gonna take you far away
It’s so unfair
You’ll meet all these people out there
And I can’t compare anymore
The night is gonna take you far away
The night is gonna take you far away
Though you wake right next to me
The hour’s gonna change
Just wait and see
The night is gonna take you far from me
The hand will strike
And I’ll be sitting here by candlelight
The night is gonna take you from my side
If by chance I do persuade
With this lonely serenade
i would always know I guilted you
Though sometimes you’ll even stay
We now must both admit to this charade
The night is gonna take you far away
The hour strikes
And I’ll be left alone by candlelight
The night is gonna take you from my life
And so I watch you leave
And we both know
You’ll meet all these people out there
And I can’t compare anymore
The night is gonna take you far away
Great song Paul! One of your best as of late I’d have to say (I mean they are all good!). The unexpected phrasing and vocal range really makes it quite interesting.
