Lyrics
The searching fingers of the dawn
Are slowly creeping up the eastern sky
So I won't disturb your sleep
And I'll just touch your cheek and leave without goodbye
But if you find regrets are waiting for you in the early morning light
Oh don't blame yourself and don't blame me
For we were only victims of the night
Before you curse the morning sun
Just pause and wonder were we really wrong
How many other lovers are awaken to face their own grey dawn
And they must also answer probing
Questions when the morning kills the night
Should they regret or could it be we
All were only victims of the night
As I leave you now you're smiling
And I know that I'm gonna remember you that way
I don't need hasty promises to cling to as I go to face that day
I only hope that I'll awake to find
The embers still are burning bright
And perhaps someday I'll find you and be
Grateful we were victims of the night
And perhaps someday I'll find you and be
Grateful we were victims of the night
