She s afraid to sleep
The world has shown an ugly face
And she would cry to me
Her tears are falling from such grace

And I know she’s right
Yet she doesn’t see it’s due
To the marvellous fright
That’ll sometimes make love blue
That’ll sometimes make me run

And I know she’s right
Yet she doesn’t see it’s due
To the marvellous fright
That’ll sometimes make love blue

You better stay alive
It’s gonna be alright
When the day comes overnight

And I know she’s right
On the marvellous fright
And I know she’s right
Yet she doesn’t see it’s due
And I know she’s right
Coming over night

You better stay alive
It’s gonna be alright
When the day comes overnight
Over night
