[Intro]

[Verse 1]
The afternoon has gently passed me by
The evening spreads
Itself against the sky
Waiting for tomorrow
It's just another day
As I bid yesterday goodbye

[Chorus]
Bring on the night
I couldn't stand another hour of daylight
Bring on the night
I couldn't stand another hour of daylight

[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
As I bid yesterday goodbye

[Chorus]
Bring on the night
I couldn't stand another hour of daylight
Bring on the night
I couldn't stand another hour of daylight

[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus]
Bring on the night
I couldn't stand another hour of daylight
Bring on the night
I couldn't stand another hour of daylight

[Outro]
Couldn't stand another hour of daylight
Couldn't stand another hour of daylight
Couldn't stand another hour of daylight
I couldn't stand another hour of daylight
Couldn't stand another hour of daylight
I couldn't stand another hour of daylight
Couldn't stand another hour of daylight
Couldn't stand another hour of daylight
Couldn't stand another hour of daylight
Couldn't stand another hour of daylight

The Police

The Police were an English rock band formed in London in 1977. For the majority of their history, the band consisted of Sting (lead vocals, bass), Andy Summers (guitar) and Stewart Copeland (drums). The Police became globally popular in the late 1970s and are generally regarded as one of the first new wave groups to achieve mainstream success, playing a style of rock that was influenced by punk, reggae, and jazz.
