Night After Night

(Bruce Donnola/BMI)
1998

If she's somewhere in the fields tell her I'm here
I've come back looking for her after all of these years
And if she's come to accept that what's done was done
I'll be waiting for her 'neath the blaze of the evening sun
For as strange as it seems
Though our lives parted like streams
She's been in all my dreams
Night after night
Night after night

Or if she's in the city, tell her I'm there
As she sits brushing the past from the waves of her hair
In her high tower so far above the street
The soft carpet beneath the bare soles of her feet.
And the beauty she flaunts
For the lover she wants
That's the thing that still haunts me
Night after night
Night after night

Go on, study the past but for Heaven's sake
Don't go thinking that that's all it takes
Cause you'll still make all the same mistakes
Believe me, my friend
Again and again.

But if she's in the stars tell her I'm free
And I'll always love her for all that she showed to me
All the world's been redefined, nothing's the same
For I find her in it all, flower and flame
Tell her it's not over yet
I can never forget
For the evening sun it always sets
Night after night
Night after night
Night after night after night after night after night after night.
