Lyrics Tell Me This Night Is Over - The Ark

Tell Me This Night Is Over

Why should it be so bad to be bad
When it’s so hard to be anything at all?
And why does everyone seem to forget
What it’s like to be all alone
— As soon as they
Have got someone, oh it’s no fun
It makes me wanna vanish and die
Maybe I’ll throw all my clothes
Into a waterfall
And sit and spy while they all cry
— You get so silly when you’re lonely
And you think that you’re the only
Who’ll say:
I hope that someone’s gonna call
And tell me this night is over
'Cause I wanna start living my life
Before I get much older
Maybe you all would consider it a joke
If I say that I hate myself
But now and then
When I look into the mirror
All I see is a big mistake
(And wouldn’t you)
Well, I just wanna be fun
Just wanna be the one
Who makes you smile
I just wanna believe
That I could be something to someone
— Am I the only one around here
Who’s not gonna live my life in fear?
I hope that someone’s gonna call
And tell me this night is over
'Cause I wanna start living my life
Before I get much older
(- I don’t understand you!)
— And why would you?
(- Can you tell me
What is on your mind?)
— I don’t have words to say
How much I think I owe you
— We ain’t gonna live our lives in fear…
