เพลง The Dead Of The Night (Album Version)

The Dead Of The Night-Shawn Colvin

It is the dead of the night

Oh, the dead of the night

I live on a dream, it came to me when I was young

And I brought it here and now for years

The streets of London keep it safe and warm

Every morning it dies and it is reborn

Into the dead of the night

In the dead of the night

Oh, the dead of the night

I keep a pencil and a book, I say this is how a life can look

Russian Roulette, French-kissed cigarette and the silence like an anvil

And the things that you learn but now all that burns is the candle

And the fog melts over the night and it softens the edges I begin to write

Into the dead of the night

In the dead of the night

Oh, the dead of the night

A bead of sweat runs down my arm and I drink it from my skin

It is the most real thing that I feel, it is communion

Bless the meek, heal the sick, protect the weak

Into the dead of the night

In the dead of the night

Into the dead of the night

In the dead of the night

Oh, the dead of the night
