From the Night

Baby's got a funny way of hiding how she really feels inside
And if forever feels okay, then she's into drinking all the lies
I guess no one could read a mind
Look at all the blues around her eyes
Telling all these tales of mine
Hoping that there's comfort she can find

I've got a thousand things to learn
And she's got her tables she can turn

And, girl, you saved me from the night
Gave me more than I wanted out of life
Speak so soft to me, soft to me tonight
Then I'll kiss you on your head and then we'll say goodnight

Baby likes to hide away and finds it hard to get to sleep at night
Doesn't try to chase the day, this is not a dream, it's real life
It's never good to run from pain, it only catches up to you in time
'Cause all the words we couldn't say
Are all the words that play upon my mind

Now I've got a thousand things to learn
She's got her tables she can turn

Girl, you saved me from the night
Gave me more than I wanted out of life
Speak so soft to me, soft to me tonight
Then I'll kiss you on your head and then we'll say goodnight

And girl, will you save me from the night?
Gave me more than I wanted out of life
Speak so soft to me, soft to me tonight
Then I'll kiss you on your head and then we'll say goodnight
Girl, will you save me from the night?
Gave me more than I wanted out of life
Speak so soft to me, soft to me tonight
Then I'll kiss you on your head and then we'll say goodbye
