C b Em
That night her kiss told me it was over
C b Em G
I walked out late into the dark
A C b
The misty gloom seems to soak up my sorrow
C b
The further I went on
C b
I felt a spreading calm
C b Em
Then suddenly my eyes were bathed in light
C b Em
And the lovely lady in white was by my side
G A C b
She said "like me I see you’re walking alone
C b
Won’t you please stay? "
C b G D G D
I couldn’t look away
G D G D
She said, I... love the night
G D G
The day is ok and the sun can be fun but I live
D G D G D
To see those rays slip away
G D G D
I... love the night
G D G
There’s so much I can show and give to you
D G D
If you will welcome me tonight
G D G D
If only you had been there my dear
G D G D
We could have shared this together
etc..
