Janis Ian Here Comes The Night Lyrics

Touch in the tenderest night,
Before the feelings take flight.
Touch and you make everything new,
Everything bright, shiny and true.
Before the dawn and the light,
Here comes the night.

Here in the heart, I still breathe,
Longing a part of me I can't see.
And if the heart cannot redeem,
One soul apart, one separate dream.
Before the dawn and the light,
Here comes the night.

Here we are waiting (waiting),
And longing (longing),
Crying out, I am more than just a man,
Building castles in the sand.
All of us needing and leaving,
Long before the break of day.
So little time to say,
Well, I am, I know the way. And I wanna be somebody who can see forever.
Wanna be somebody who can see forever.

Here in the heart I still dream.
Here in the heart of life I seem,
Somebody light, (somebody),

Somebody new, (somebody),
Somebody bright, (who can see),
Shiny and true.

(Somebody light,) wanna be,
(Somebody new,) somebody,
(Somebody bright,) who can see,
(Shiny and true,) forever.

(Somebody light,) wanna be,
(Somebody new,) somebody,
(Somebody bright,) who can see,
(Shiny and true,) forever.

Before the dawn and the light,
Here comes the night.
Before the dawn and the light,
Here comes the night.
