A Long Night Coming Lyrics by Pat Nason

Here and Now - Pat Nason

2020

Verse One
There's a long night coming
A long night dead ahead
Nobody knows when, nobody can say
But sure as the night follows the day
The good times will be over
And the good things in the past
And all your darkest fears
Are gonna come for you at last
Can't you hear the warning
The voices in your head
There's a long night coming dead ahead
Verse Two
And there's a cold day coming
Further on down the road
And nothing you do, nothing you say
Can keep it from coming or turn it away
No matter where you run to
Or how you try to hide
You'll never outrun the things you've done
You'll keep 'em deep inside
And you've got to reap the harvest
For every seed you'd ever sowed
And there's a cold day coming down the road
Refrain
Did you ever think you'd live to see the day
When everything around us
Would just turn to dust and blow away?
Verse Three
But there's hard times coming
Come high water or hell
Maybe tomorrow, maybe next year
Sooner or later hard times will be here
And the sun won't go on shining
And the birds refuse to fly
Everything will turn brown when it all goes down
And no one will know why
And we'll never miss the water
Until we've dried up that last well
And there's hard times coming high water or hell
Refrain
Did you ever think you'd live to see the day
When everything around us
Would just turn to dust and blow away?
Verse Four
But there's a long night coming
A long night dead ahead
Nobody knows when, nobody can say
But sure as the night follows the day
Nothing lasts forever
And all good things must pass
There'll be nothing to hold onto
And the time is fading fast
So tie up all your loose ends
Get all your goodbyes said
'Cause there's a long night coming dead ahead
There's a long night coming dead ahead
There's a long night coming dead ahead
