Juliana Hatfield - Sweet Is the Night lyrics

When the day is done and
There's nowhere to run
And the people of the city
Have all lost and won
In your city dress, you stand and stare
And you smoke another cigarette
And comb your hair

And the light that shines
Paints a trace of sadness on the street
And I wait but, I can't seem to get to you

Well, you start to sway, check your Cartier
'Cause, it's getting late
You can't afford to wait
So you move along where it's going on
And the people of the night
Are playing 'til the dawn

And the sun that shines
Paints a trace of sadnеss in
Your eyes that cry wishing and hoping, oh

Sweet, sweet is the night now you arе near
Dark, dark were the days they disappear
Sweet, sweet is the night now you are near

Well, you did your thing and
You lost your wings
And you hurt so bad, you lost everything
And the tears that fall on the city wall
Will fade away

With the rays of morning light that shines
Paints a smile across your pretty face
I know everything is alright alright

Sweet, sweet is the night now you are near
Dark, dark were the days they disappear
Sweet, sweet is the night now you are near

Sweet, sweet is the night now you are near
Dark, dark were the days they disappear
Sweet, sweet is the night now you are near
Now you are near
