Television stops its glow
Ashtray's overflowin'
Cigarette and whiskey flavored dreams
All alone and tired of tryin'
Eyes are red from all this cryin'
Think I'm gonna bust out at the seam
Oh, it's a sad time of the night
Darkness seems to light up the memory of you
Oh, it's the sad time of the night
Don't know if I'm gonna make it through
Here's a glowin' candle light
We used to share this time of night
Listened to the music as it played
You'd wear somethin' soft and sheer
I'd slip it off and hold you near
We'd make love like love is seldom made
Oh, it's a sad time of the night
Darkness seems to light up the memory of you
Oh, it's the sad time of the night
Don't know if I'm gonna make it through
Will things be the same in the mornin'?
Maybe I'll feel different, I can't say
Hope the sunlight brings with it forwardin'
Things look better in the light of day
But now it's a sad time of the night
Darkness seems to light up the memory of you
Oh, it's the sad time of the night
Don't know if I'm gonna make it through
Darkness seems to light up the memory of you
Oh, it's the sad time of the night
Don't know if I'm gonna make it through
