It's in the night,
That I get that lonesome feeling
Oh, the troubles of the day
Come rushing into my mind.

It's in the night
That I start to think about you
And this ache that's in my heart
Gets stronger as time goes by.

Morning brings relief from misery
I even manage a smile for friends I see
Darkness falls and then the shades of night
Reach out for me and try to hold me tight.

And drag me down, down, down,

And then once more
The night and you enfold me
And I'm caught in the web
That you spun when we first fell in love.

I can't forget
The way you used to hold me
Will this memory of our love
Keep haunting me
Until the day I die.

Solo

Morning brings relief from misery
I even manage a smile for friends I see
Darkness falls and then the shades of night
Reach out for me and try to hold me tight.

And drag me down, down, down,
And drag me down, down, down, down, down.
