Night After Night

	  		
Dm 
My darling, I loved you 
  Bb 
I long to become you 
    A 
And know what it is that you gave 

Dm 
We dance the sorrow 
   Bb 
Forgive me tomorrow 



      F                Gm                  F 
And I pray night after night and day after day 
                        Gm 
Would you watch my body weaken 



                   Dm 
And my mind drift away? 

Dm    Bb    A 

Dm                 Bb                  A 
Dear lover forsaken, our love is taken away 
Dm                 Bb 
You were my speaker, my innocence-keeper 
  F                 Gm               F 
I don't night after night, day after day 
                        Gm 
Would you watch my body weaken, 
               Dm 
My mind drift away? 

Dm    Bb    A 

Dear lover forgiven, my love is driven by rage 
Oh I should just leave you, instead I've deceived you 
But I don't, night after night, day after day 
Would you watch my body weaken 
my mind drift away? 

Dm                      Bb 
I count to no one, hold nobody's ear 
  A 
I sold you my hand once and you hit me in fear 
        Dm 
I don't stand for the devil 
        Bb 
I don't whisper in ears 
  F                          Gm             F    Gm     Dm 
I stand on the mountains and call people to hear 



Dm/F                   Dm                     Dm/F 
It's a sudden burst of light, it's a fate foretold 
      Dm             Dm/F     Dm 
It is knowing, it is knowing 

Dm    Bb    A 

   Dm                        Bb 
He longs for the answers, as all of us must 
   A 
He longs for the woman who will conquer his lust 
   Dm                      Bb 
He screams in the night, I scream in the day 
   A 
We weep in the evening and lie naked and pray 

F           Gm               F 
Night after night, day after day 
            Gm               F 
Night after night, day after day 
                        Gm 
Could you watch my body weaken, 
                   Dm 
and my mind drift away? 


Dm/F                     Dm 
It's a tempting communion 
                Dm/F 
It's a fate foretold 
      Dm             Dm/F 
It is knowing, it is knowing
