Emitt Rhodes - Nigths Are Lonely lyrics

Rhodes Nights are lonely, nights are lonely, lonely and long Dreaming at night, you feel your body falling, before you reach the bottom you wake Ready to run at the sign of any danger, blankets always in your way Nights are lonely, nights are lonely, lonely and long Don't close your eyes if the night's got you frightened, iit's always darkest just prior day Lock all your doors then check all your closets, make sure no one is hidden away Nights are lonely, nights are lonely, lonely and long Now I lay me down to sleep, pray the Lord my soul to keep Well if I should die before I wake tell the Lord he's made a big mistake Don't be afraid if the darkness tends to scare you, with the light on you need not fear Don't be ashamed if at bedtime you're lonely and you seep with your teddy bear Nights are lonely, nights are lonely, lonely and long
