Dead Of Night

Stiff Little Fingers · Story So Far [2007]

Walk the streets at midnight



As the rain pours down and freezes on the ground



Lean against a street light



Try to work out where it all went wrong



I can see you in my mind's eye

I have no choice



I can hear you in the wild wind



I hear your voice



Your voice



Can't believe it's over



I can't believe that I walked out the door



A misplaced sense of honour

Led me to believe I knew the score



I can see you in reflections



You're there all the time



And if only you would let me

I'd change my mind



Chorus:



In the dead of night



(I would be there for you)



I'd be on your side



(My help would see you through)



Trust in me don't cry



(There now you'll be all right)



In the dead of night



It happened all so quickly

One day we were there and now we are gone



I wish that you'd forgive me



Now I know that I'm the one who's wrong

Can't believe I'm so stupid



I would not see



That you never gave up trying



Or loving me



(Chorus)



And I couldn't blame you now



If you didn't want me back

No I couldn't blame you now



Walk the streets at midnight



As the rain pours down and mixes with my tears



And I know I've no right

To try to see you after all these years



But you're always with me



I have no choice

And I know I'll remember



And I'll hear your voice



(Chorus)
