It Was The Night Lyrics - Little River Band

It was the night, it was the night before 

It was the night before we met, I sat alone 

Right by the phone, it was the night 

It was the day, it was the day you came 

It was the day you came my way, what can I say? 

You came to stay, it was the day 

There's a storm, outside my window 

Flashes in the sky, what a night 

I hear the voices calling 

And I see the people running in the light 

All this craziness I'm feeling just reminds me 

That it really can't go on 

And I want so much to tell you 

But the number you have given me is wrong 

It was the night, it was the night before 

It was the night before we met, I sat alone 

Right by the phone, it was the night 

It was the time, it was the time we had 

It was the time we had to live, our time to give 

To be happy with, it was the time 

I'm sitting in my room with the silhouetted moon in my eye 

I stare into the darkness, and I see the planets hanging in the sky 

And this temporary feeling is just telling me I've seen it all before 

But the penetrating madness of the nightly news, I really can't ignore 

It was the night, we were drawn to the light 

We were climbing higher 

It was the day when we all came to say 

We were on fire, it was the night 

There are lovers on the roof 

They are waiting for the proof they can see 

There's an answer on its way 

It was due back here today to be free 

And I thought that I should tell you 

That you're just another image of my mind 

But you need to keep it secret 

'Cos these days secrets are so hard to find 

It was the night, it was the night before 

It was the night before we met, I sat alone 

Right by the phone, it was the night 

It was the day, it was the day you came 

It was the day you came my way, what can I say? 

You came to stay, it was the day 

It was the time, it was the night
