When the Night Comes Down - Foreigner

作词：Jeff Northrup/Johnny Edwards/Mick Jones/Terry Thomas

Jimmy got lost in a schoolboy phase

You see the lines got crossed

At a young and tender age

He dropped out of school

And the new crowd he'd meet

He left his broken home

For a new life out on the street

See the young boys laugh

Gettin' high on a midnight run

They've got it all figure out

They don't need no help

From anyone oh no

Jimmy never knew real love in his heart

No feelings remain

Somehow he knew he'd never be a part

So alone with his pain

When the night comes down

Out there on the streets

So many sad sad stories

When the night comes down

They're runnin' out of hope

In this land of glory

They're runnin' in the night

In the night comes down

See the young boy cry he's cryin' out all alone

And the hurt inside

He's gotta face it all on his own

And the church bells ring

And the lord is praised

But they ain't got time for jimmy

On their holy holy days

Jimmy never felt real love in his heart

No feelings remain

Somehow he knew he'd never be a part

So alone with his pain

When the night comes down

Out there on the streets

So many sad sad stories

When the night comes down

They're runnin' out of hope

In this land of glory

Just ready in the night

When the night comes down

Its a cold hearted town

Nothin' but a battleground

And they're runnin' out of hope

Ooh when the night

Comes down

On this battleground

So many so many sad sad stories

You can see it every night

When the night comes down

See the young boy cry
