When the day is done
And the stars shine through
My only thoughts are thoughts of you
There was a time, a lonely time
I used to dream that I'd make you mine
Oh, yeah
You say you can't lose
What you never had
Well, I had a dream
And it turned bad
Your friends all say
You're older than you seem
But you look fine
On that silver screen
Yes, you do
But you never wanted me in that way
Oh, no
And now I can't watch TV
Well, I can see you
But you can't see me
So keep the night away
Come on, baby
Keep the night away
I want you to
Keep the night away
When the day is done
And the stars shine through
My only thoughts are thoughts of you
There was a time, a lonely time
I used to dream that I'd make you mine
Yes, I did
But I can't let my past mistakes
Keep me down
Oh, no
Not while the night turns to day
And the daylight brings new dreams
You gotta
Keep the night away
Come on, baby
Keep the night away
Oh
Keep the night away
You gotta...
I can't have you for real
So I'll see you in my dreams
