Why must I wait for the morning sun to rise
That maybe then I can rest my eyes
So I wont think of you and our used-to-bes
Cause I cant turn the night
No I cant turn the night
Oh, I cant turn the night off
I watch the ceiling dance thru my midnight eyes
A screen on which I fantasize
All of our yesterdays and our used-to-bes
Oh, I cant turn the night
No I cant turn the night
Oh, I cant turn the night off
If only you and I were together now
Wed make it somehow
We were so young before; we didnt realize
You cant take back the goodbyes
And so I wait for the morning sun to rise
That maybe then I can close my eyes
So I wont look at you and our used-to-bes
And I cant turn the night
No, I cant turn the night
Oh, I cant turn the night off
