Текст песни Then Came the Night - Trace Adkins

Long-legged shadows
Mississippi sunset
She was standing like a candle
That hasn′t been burned yet
The wind was blowin'
Clouds like ashes
Had my hand in my pocket
Reaching for my matches
I can see those
Cotton sheets dancin′
On her mama's clothesline in my head
From my lips a Lucky Strike was danglin'
The day was dyin′ in a sea of red
The came the night
Warm and dark
Draggin′ it's chains
Across our hearts
The moon was full
The grass was wet
Making us scream
Making us sweat
Holdin′ on tight
It was wrong
It was right
Then came the night
There was a time
When love was a flower
Now it's a vine
Climbin′ up the tower
And the river just rolls
Past the garden
Where love won't grow
And the ground has hardened
I can see that tattered white flag flyin′
I can hear the ringin' mission bell
Telling of the innocence that's dyin′
A sound that I remember oh so well
The came the night
Warm and dark
Draggin′ it's chains
Across our hearts
The moon was full
The grass was wet
Makin′ us moan
Makin' us wet
Makin′ us cling
Makin' us claw
Makin′ us rise
Makin' us fall
Breath on breath
Skin on skin
I can't go back
There again
Holdin′ on tight
It was wrong
It was right
Then came the night
