Lyrics
THEN COMES THE NIGHT
©2001 words and music by Marvin L. Adcock
I go to work each day like nothings wrong
Our friends just can?t believe how strong I am
I say that I?m OK, sometimes life gets rearranged
You have to learn to take it like a man
CHORUS
Then comes the night, and voices start callin?
Just like the light, my teardrops start fallin?
I completely break down, go to black from white
I have my feet on the ground, but then comes the night
We never said goodbye, I turned around and you weren?t there
I could not convince myself at first
How in the blinking of an eye I watched our dreams just disappear
I only thought that I had felt the worst
CHORUS (repeat)
BRIDGE
I pray to lose this hurt of being left alone
With my knees in this dirt and my hands upon your stone
I go to work each day, like nothings changed
