Blackness Of The Night Lyrics - The View From The Top - Cat Stevens

In the blackness of the night 

I seem to wander endlessly 

With a hope burning out deep inside 

I'm a fugitive, community has driven me out 

For this bad, bad world I'm beginning to doubt 

I'm alone and there is no one by my side 

In the blackness of the night 

I see a shadow passing by 

From the heels of an old soldier boy. 

There's no comprimising 

And his eyes are black as the sky 

For this bad, bad world he is going to die. 

He's alone and there is no one by his side

In the blackness of the night 

I see a sparkle of a star 

From the sweet silver tear of a child 

And she's clutching at a photograph of long, long ago 

When her parents were happy she was too young to know 

She's alone and there is no one by her side 

Photos 

I'm alone and there is no one by my side 

In the blackness of the night 

I seem to wander endlessly 

With a hope burning out deep inside 

I'm a fugitive, community has driven me out 

For this bad, bad world I'm beginning to doubt 

I'm alone, and there is no one by my side
