The Egyptian Lover
I Cry (Night After Night)
[Verse 1]
Night after night, I call you
Night after night, you're never home
Night after night I get disappointed
'Cause I'm sick and tired of being alone (alone)
Night after night, I go for a walk
Looking at the stars in the sky
Night after night, I look in the mirror
And wonder why a lover has to cry, ohh
[Verse 2]
I cry in the night
Because girl, you're never ever with me
I know it makes no sense to cry
But this ain't the way my life should be
In the mornings, I go to the pond
All my friends see me walking down the street
And they all know that something's bothering me
Because my smile's so weak, ohh
[Verse 3]
Night after night, I chase you down
Night after night, you disappear
It's hard for me to comprehend
What exactly do you fear?
I don't wanna be alone, I don't wanna be alone
But I have no choice if I want you
You have so many friends, you're always on the phone
You make my life so blue
[Bridge]
(Night after night)
(Night after night)
(Night after night)
(Night after night)
[Verse 4]
Night after night, I think of you
Night after night, I fantasize
If we could be alone, just us two
My Egyptian voice will hypnotize
Night after night, I dream of you
Night after night, I'm alone
Night after night, I call you
Night after night, you're never, never home
[Outro]
