Lyrics

[00:13.88] I used to lay out in a field under the Milky Way
[00:20.69] With everything that I was feeling that I could not say
[00:27.21] With every doubt and every sorrow that was in my way
[00:33.40] Tearing around inside my head like it was there to stay
[00:39.84] Night in my eyes, the night inside me
[00:46.24] There where the shadows and the night could hide me
[00:52.62] Night in my eyes
[00:55.74] Sky full of stars turning over me
[01:02.40] Waiting for night to set me free
[01:15.22] I caught a ride into the city every chance I got
[01:21.27] I wasn't sure there was a name for the life I sought
[01:27.78] Now I'm a long way gone down the life I got
[01:34.09] I don't know how I believed some of the things I thought
[01:40.38] Night in my eyes, the night inside me
[01:46.99] Here where the shadows gather to decide me
[01:53.10] Night in my eyes
[01:56.54] Out at the end of light and gravity
[02:03.21] Waiting for night
[02:31.82] It takes the night to clear all of this mess away
[02:37.86] The obligation, the burden and the light of day
[02:44.42] It takes the night to fall between the world I obey
[02:48.81] And a world where I hear angels play
[02:54.32] Maybe I should go back to Spain
[02:58.57] I walk around inside the questions of my day
[03:04.89] I navigate the inner reaches of my disarray
[03:11.39] I pass the altars where fools and thieves hold sway
[03:17.71] I wait for night to come and lift this dread away
[03:24.11] Night in my eyes, the night inside me
[03:30.52] Here where the shadows and the light divide me
[03:36.82] Night in my eyes
[03:41.34] Night full of promise and uncertainty
[03:47.36] Waiting for night to set me free
