Night Must Fall - Hoodoo Gurus

Never thought we’d ever end

I can’t afford to lose more friends

Not to have you close at hand

Wasn’t quite what I had planned

(It's that time)

Is it that time?

A moment that will pass

(Yes, it’s that time)

Is it that time?

We knew it couldn’t last

I’m just trying to catch my breath

A heart that beats itself to death

Panic stricken by the thought

You’re not here for my support

(But its that time)

Is it that time?

A curtain has to fall

(Yes, it’s that time)

Is it that time?

The writing’s on the wall

(You're in your prime)

You’re in your prime now, darling

And that’s the worst of all

It’s just that time

Night must fall

I’m so lonely

I’m so sorry

Can we ever justify

Letting sleeping hatred lie?

In the trenches hand-to-hand

Is the measure of a man

Am I a man?

(It's that time)

Is it that time?

The light has almost gone

(Yes, it’s that time)

Is it that time?

The carnival moves on

You’re in your prime

(You're in your prime now, darling)

And you did nothing wrong

It’s just that time

Night has come
