Night Falls Lyrics

Time has shown its face
Too many words, too many hopes
And too much we've learned

And life won't wait in comfortable chairs
You look so bleak without a care

Sometimes her eyes close before nightfall
And sometimes my eyes close before nightfall
Cancer calls

Dancing on the seams
Leaves from a tree
All that fades and all that we feed

And I can be brave if you can be bare
Stripping the life and taking what's there

Sometimes her eyes close before nightfall

Take these wings and learn to fly
Hold these eyes which never cry
Watch on me just like a child

Sometimes my eyes close
And sometimes her eyes close before nightfall
Cancer calls
