All the hopes that you've been holding on to for so long
And the fires you've been chasing down now are all gone
I can tell you are a long way from the one you love
Ohh the night it takes so long to fall
Ohh in the night, ohh in the night, ohh 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...
Ohh in the night, ohh in the night, ohh 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 palmer
Carrying a stone I can
Still not believe the words that you sing
So heavy are your own
Ohhhhhhhhhhh no
All my life I've spent out 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
Ohh in the night, ohh in the night, ohh 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 on my life he's not the only one
No you can never have my fortunate son
No no
No no no
