Why must I wait for the morning sun to rise That maybe then I can rest my eyes So I won't think of you and our used-to-be's Cause I can't turn the night No I can't turn the night Oh, I can't turn the night off I watch the ceiling dance thru my midnight eyes A screen on which I fantasize All of our yesterdays and our used-to-be's Oh, I can't turn the night No I can't turn the night Oh, I can't turn the night off If only you and I were together now We'd make it somehow We were so young before; we didn't realize You can't take back the goodbyes And so I wait for the morning sun to rise That maybe then I can close my eyes So I won't look at you and our used-to-be's And I can't turn the night No, I can't turn the night Oh, I can't turn the night off
