When the Night Is Over Lyrics

[Verse 1]My one and only loveI've been lonely long enoughWill I find you when the night is over?Tell me where did you go?I've been searching high and lowI have only 'til the night is over[Verse 2]In every window, I passYour reflection in the glassMakes me wonder if my mind is goingShadows shifting in the rainSlowly driving me insaneBy the stars above, I know we were in loveI have only 'til the night is over[Chorus]I feel the weather changeI hear the river say your nameI watch the birds fly byI see an emerald in the sky[Instrumental Break][Verse 3]Now the trail has gone coldI don't know where else to goAnd my time, I fear, is nearly overWhen the ocean drinks the skyAnd the city winks its eyeWhen the night is done, you'll vanish in the sunWill I hold you when the night is over?See Lord Huron LiveGet tickets as low as $63You might also like[Outro]Am I lost inside my mind?There's an emerald in the skyI hear the river say your nameBy the stars above, I know we were in loveI hear the river say your nameI have only 'til the night is over12EmbedCancel

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
