All the hopes that you've been holding onto for so long
And the fires you've been chasing down now all are gone
I can tell you are a long way from the one you love
Oh the night it takes so long to fall
Oh in the night oh in the night oh in the night
I will hide away my fortunate son
He's soon to fall if I let him go
But I'll always know on my life he's not the only one
No no
Oh in the night oh in the night oh in the night
I will hide away my fortunate son
He's soon to fall if I let him go
But I'll always know on my life he's not the only one
No no
Smoke and shadows following me
To my heart like a pauper carrying stone
I can still not believe the words that you sing
So heavy are your own
Ohhhhhh
All my I've spent wandering the farthest south
Oh that weathervane is holding out to hold me down
And a heart like yours should never have to go without
But sometimes it takes the night to fall
Oh in the night oh in the night oh in the night
I will hide away my fortunate son
He's soon to fall if I let him go
But I'll always know on my life he's not the only one
No you can never have my fortunate son
No no
