Where Did the Night Go

Lyrics

Long ago the clock washed midnight away
 Bringing the dawn
 Oh God, I must be dreaming
 Time to get up again
 And time to start up again
 Pulling on my socks now
 (Where did the night go?)
 Should have been asleep
 When I was sitting there drinking beer
 And trying to start another letter to you
 Don't know how many times
 I didn't write again last night
 Should've been asleep when I turned
 The stack of records over and over
 So I wouldn't be up by myself
 Where did the night go?
 Should go to sleep now
 And say, "Hell, fuck a job and money"
 Because I spend it all on unlined paper and can't get past
 "Dear baby, how are you?"
 Brush my teeth and shave
 Look outside, sky is dark
 Think it may rain
 Where did
 Where did
 Where did
 Where did the night go?
 Oh God, I must be dreaming
 Sky is dark, think it may rain
 Sky is dark, oh God I must be dreaming
 (Where did the night go?)
 Sky is dark, think it may rain
 Sky is dark, oh God I must be dreaming
 Should've been asleep when I turned
 The stack of records over and over
 And over and over and over and over and over
 And over and over and over
 (Where did the night go?)
 The sky is dark, think it may rain
 The sky is dark, oh God I must be dreaming
 Where did the night go?
 Where did
 Where did
 Where did the night go?
