"Overnite" lyrics

"Overnite"

When I was seventeen (Tell us about it, Green)
There was a world to know about (Check it out)
Every day I'd call her (What'd she say?)
Is it over yet? Do you love me?

Overnite - and while your trouble's away
Under the stars up above - I'll build you another day
Close your eyes - I'll be home before it's light
And all the tears you cry - will dry in the dead of night

And now I'm in between (Tell us about it Green)
It all became a mystery (Check it out)
Everyday she calls me (What does she say?)
It isn't over yet. Do you believe them?

Overnite - and while your trouble's away
Under the stars up above - I'll build you another day
Close your eyes - I'll be home before it's light
And all the fears you have - will die in the dead of night

Someday - maybe soon - we could show them a way
I would love just to watch it falling
Oh, my pretty one, show me a way

Overnite - I heard a satellite say
There'll be a wind from the west - to blow all your dreams away
Close your eyes - and maybe before it's light
Oh, all the hopes that you have - will die in the dead of night

Overnite - and while your trouble's away
Under the stars up above - I'll build you another day
Close your eyes - I'll be home before it's light
And all the tears you cry - will dry in the dead of night

Overnite - and while your trouble's away
Under the stars up above - I'll build you another day
Close your eyes - I'll be home before it's light
Oh, all the hopes that you have - will die in the dead of night

(Night)

(Light)

(Night)
