Depending on the Night Songtext
von Freedy Johnston

This is how the story ends
Face up on the floor again
Wondering how he let himself believe her
Darkness now his only friend

Since she′s gone away
He's depending on the night
Only gets through the day
Waiting to come home and get blind

Together and then left alone
Well that′s the way the story goes
How're you supposed
To learn to be forgotten
Darkness just pretends to know


Might be blue or black
Depending on the night
Each day's like the last
Broken down and quiet

Shadows come to play
And always let him hide
Since she′s gone away
He′s been depending on the night

At this hour you almost can defeat memory
One voice never seems to fade away,
Fade away, fade away

Shadows come to play
And always let him hide
Since she'd gone away
He′s been depending on the night
