When the Night Comes Down - Foreigner

Jimmy got lost, in a schoolboy phase

You see the lines got crossed, at a young and tender age

He dropped out of school, and the new crowd hed meet

He left his broken home, for a new life, out on the street

See the young boys laugh, gettin high on a midnight run

Theyve got it all figure out, they dont need no help

From anyone

Jimmy never knew real love in his heart

No feelings remain

Somehow he knew hed never be a part

So alone with his pain

When the night comes down

Out there on the streets, so many sad, sad stories

When the night comes down

Theyre runnin out of hope, in this land of glory

Theyre runnin in the night

See the young boy cry, hes cryin out, all alone

And the hurt inside, hes gotta face it all on his own

And the church bells ring, and the lord is praised

But they aint got time for jimmy, on their holy, holy days

Jimmy never felt real love in his heart

No feelings remain

Somehow he knew hed never be a part

So alone with his pain

When the night comes down

Out there on the streets, so many sad, sad stories

When the night comes down

Theyre runnin out of hope, in this land of glory

When the night comes down

Its a cold hearted town, nothin but a battleground

And theyre runnin out of hope, ooh, when the night

Comes down

On this battleground

So many, so many sad, sad stories

You can see it every night

When the night comes down

See the young boy cry
