Through the window he sits watching his last sunset
Like a blackout curtain closing out the light
It's now he needs someone's arms around him
Yes it's now he needs someone to help him through the night
An all night lady
One who loves me
And won't leave me when daylight comes
One who'll stay with me until my life is done
At 9 AM they're going to lead him to the death-house
And at 10 AM they'll lay his soul to rest
I can see them giving him his last supper
I can hear him giving them his last request
An all night lady
One who loves me
And won't leave me when daylight comes
One who'll stay with me until my life is done
One who'll stay with me until my life is done
