[Verse] The clock’s hand trembles slow and shy A whisper cuts the velvet sky I’m chasing dreams that always fly too high [Chorus] The difficult day of the night Where shadows argue with the light It’s not wrong it’s not right It’s just the difficult day of the night [Verse 2] Streetlights hum a ghostly tune The pavement glistens under the moon I left my heart in a paper balloon [Prechorus] What’s the truth when silence lies What’s the cost of all goodbyes [Chorus] The difficult day of the night Where shadows argue with the light It’s not wrong it’s not right It’s just the difficult day of the night [Bridge] I’m a sailor lost at sea Counting stars that won’t save me The night is long but it won’t last Every dawn buries the past
