Artist/Band: Queen
Lyrics for Song: The Night Comes Down
Lyrics for Album: The Crown Jewels [1998]



When I was young it came to me

And I could see the sun breakin'

Lucy was high and so was I dazzling

Holding the world inside

Once I believed in everyone

Everyone and anyone can see



Oh oh the night comes down

And I get afraid of losing my way

Oh oh the night comes down

Oooh and it's dark again



Once I could laugh with everyone

Once I could see the good in me

The black and the white distinctively colouring

Holding the world inside

Now all the world is grey to me

Nobody can see - you gotta believe it



Oh (oh) oh (oh) the night comes down

And I get afraid of losing my way

Oh oh the night comes down

Oooh and it's dark again

And it's dark again

And it's dark again


The Night Comes Down

Released on Queen's 1998 compilation album The Crown Jewels, 'The Night Comes Down' stands as a testament to the band's enduring ability to blend theatrical rock with atmospheric depth. The track features Freddie Mercury's signature vocal delivery, characterized by its soaring highs and emotional vulnerability, set against a backdrop of driving rhythms and lush orchestration typical of their mid-to-late career recordings. While not part of their original studio discography, the song captures the essence of the group's live performances and studio experiments, showcasing their mastery of creating immersive sonic landscapes. Its inclusion in later collections highlights its status as a fan-favorite that transcends the boundaries of their initial releases, offering listeners a glimpse into the band's continued relevance and artistic evolution decades after their formation.
