[Verse 1]
The afternoon has gently passed me by
The evening spreads its sail against the sky
Waiting for tomorrow, just another day
God bid yesterday good-bye
[Chorus]
Bring on the night
I couldn't spend another hour of daylight [x2]
[Verse 2]
The future is but a question mark
Hangs above my head, there in the dark
Can't see for the brightness is staring me blind
God bid yesterday good-bye
[Chorus]
[Outro]
I couldn't spend another hour of daylight [x2]
The afternoon has gently passed me by
The evening spreads its sail against the sky
Waiting for tomorrow, just another day
God bid yesterday good-bye
[Chorus]
Bring on the night
I couldn't spend another hour of daylight [x2]
[Verse 2]
The future is but a question mark
Hangs above my head, there in the dark
Can't see for the brightness is staring me blind
God bid yesterday good-bye
[Chorus]
[Outro]
I couldn't spend another hour of daylight [x2]
