Lyrics All Night Long - Tom Paxton

All Night Long

All night long, dreaming badly
Feeling something’s wrong
Faces crying as they fade away
Who can say where they were going?
Where’s their song?
Did they leave it in?
Their heart’s too long
Were they waiting for a sunny day?
Who can say whose wind is blowing
I can’t wake the wind to blow my way
Let them shake the world
I know, I know in my way
I know that songs that died unsung
Know their way too
Most songs do, most songs do
All night long, someone’s trying
To believe that he is strong
Will he make it by the fade of the day?
Who can say whose power is growing
I can’t wake the wind to blow my way
Let them shake the world
I know, I know in my way
I know that songs that died unsung
Know their way too
Most songs do, most songs do
All night long, dreaming badly
Feeling something’s wrong
Faces crying as they fade away
Who can say where they were going?
With this song
Did they leave it in?
Their hearts too long
Were they waiting for a sunny day?
Who can say who’s wind is blowing
I can’t wake the wind to blow my way
Let them shake the world
I know, I know in my way
I know that songs that died unsung
Know their way too
Most songs do, most songs do
