The Night Is Comin’
©1990 Bob Ballard

Verse 1:
A breathless breeze fills the morning sky
The world is green and laced with life
I’m shiftin’ gears, pushin’ overdrive

Chorus:
[But] the night is comin’
The sun is sinkin’ down
Soon, I’ll be thinkin’ of you
Again

Verse 2:
Don’t ask my why things turned out this way
Your answer’s as good as mine anyway
At times I think its chance or just time that slipped away

Chorus:

Verse 3:
The wind’s blowin’ whiteness across the back lot
The trees are frozen, the sun’s goin’ dark
Cold icy fingers grasp at my heart
Some pray for others, I pray for naught

Chorus:
