  • The afternoon has gently passed me by
    The evening spreads itself against the sky
    Waiting for tomorrow
    It's just another day
    As I bid yesterday goodbye

    Bring on the night
    I couldn't stand another hour of daylight
    Bring on the night
    I couldn't stand another hour of daylight

    The future is but a question mark
    Hangs above my head there in the dark
    Can't see for the brightness
    Is staring me blind
    As I bid this yesterday goodbye

    Bring on the night
    I couldn't stand another hour of daylight
    Bring on the night
    I couldn't stand another hour of daylight

    Bring on the night
    I couldn't stand another hour of daylight
    Bring on the night
    I couldn't stand another hour of daylight

    Couldn't stand another hour of daylight
    Couldn't stand another hour of daylight
    Couldn't stand another hour of daylight
    I couldn't stand another hour of daylight
    Couldn't stand another hour of daylight
    I couldn't stand another hour of daylight
    Couldn't stand another hour of daylight
    Couldn't stand another hour of daylight
    Couldn't stand another hour of daylight
    Couldn't stand another hour of daylight
    Couldn't stand another hour of daylight Writer/s: Gordon Sumner
