Why must i wait for the morning sun to rise

That maybe then i can rest my eyes

So i won't think of you and our used-to-be's

Cause i can't turn the night

No i can't turn the night

Oh, i can't turn the night off



I watch the ceiling dance thru my midnight eyes

A screen on which i fantasize

All of our yesterdays and our used-to-be's

Oh, i can't turn the night

No i can't turn the night

Oh, i can't turn the night off



If only you and i were together now

We'd make it somehow

We were so young before; we didn't realize

You can't take back the goodbyes



And so i wait for the morning sun to rise

That maybe then i can close my eyes

So i won't look at you and our used-to-be's

And i can't turn the night

No, i can't turn the night

Oh, i can't turn the night off
