When the Night Comes On

Lay back 'neath the shadows
All black cigarette smoke
Blows back past your window
He's back for the next show

He's back tell me what it
Feels like being on the
Inside as the shattered
Midnight rains around you

And i know
All the places men go
And what they do
When the night comes on

And you know
Everything i'd do
When the night comes on

I know from your gait no
You don't have to fake like
You were wrecked by fate when
The dj calls your name

And behind the face you've drawn tonight
Is there something frightened in your eye
Pleasing to a little man sitting up high
Grateful that there's nothing money can't buy

I'm here to redeem you
I'm here to demean you
I'm here 'cause I need to know
If i'm like him too

And i know
All the places men go
And what they do
When the night comes on

And you know
Everything I'd do
When i need to feel you
When the night comes on

I pray these tattooed angels
Can keep you free from danger
'Cause there's no god in the heaven above
And the only devil's the one you love

I pray these tattooed angels
Can keep you free from danger
When he's bound you fast in his arms
And i've lost your name to the stars

And i know
All the places men go
And what they do
When the night comes on

And you know
Everything i'd do
When i need to feel you

And you know
All the places men go
And what we do
When the night comes on

And i know
Everything I'd do
When the night comes on
