Night Must Fall Lyrics

Never thought we´d ever end.
I can´t afford to lose more friends.
Not to have you close at hand
Wasn´t quite what I had planned.
(It´s that time)
Is it that time?
A moment that will pass
(Yes, it´s that time)
Is it that time?
We knew it couldn´t last.

I´m just trying to catch my breath.
A heart that beats itself to death,
Panic stricken by the thought
You´re not here for my support.
(But its that time)
Is it that time?
A curtain has to fall.
(Yes, it´s that time)
Is it that time?
The writing´s on the wall.
(You´re in your prime )
You´re in your prime now, darling,
And that´s the worst of all.
It´s just that time.
Night must fall.
I´m so lonely.
I´m so sorry.

Can we ever justify
Letting sleeping hatred lie?
In the trenches hand-to-hand
Is the measure of a man.
Am I a man?
(It´s that time)
Is it that time?
The light has almost gone.
(Yes, it´s that time)
Is it that time?
The carnival moves on.
You´re in your prime
(You´re in your prime now, darling)
And you did nothing wrong,
It´s just that time.
Night has come.
