I recall when we first met I hung onto every word you said But just like a dream, it slipped away You're going out painting the town Rumor has it that you're putting me down It's so hard to accept the things they say When the night comes down Who's there to listen to you? When the night comes down Whose heart is in your hand? When the night comes down Who tries to keep you happy? When the night comes down Who's there to understand? All this talk of running free I know you're trying to make a fool out of me I only wish I knew what's on your mind We're drifting apart, it's true Why won't you tell me what's the matter with you? You're breaking my heart, it's so unkind When the night comes down Who's there to listen to you? When the night comes down Whose heart is in your hand? When the night comes down Who tries to keep you happy? When the night comes down Who's there to understand? Drunken nights and senseless fights All the wrong that we can't put right I sit and watch you waste yourself away Well, go on out, girl, have a ball Get what you can before you lose it all 'Cause it's a heavy price you're gonna have to pay When the night comes down Who's there to listen to you? When the night comes down Whose heart is in your hand? When the night comes down Who tries to keep you happy? When the night comes down Who's there to understand? When the night comes down When the night comes down When the night comes down When the night comes down
