Where Did The Night Go Lyrics


Gil Scott-heron & Makaya Mccraven Where Did The Night Go

Long ago the clock washed midnight away
Bringing the dawn
Oh God, I must be dreaming
Time to get up again
And time to start up again
Pulling on my socks [?]
Where did the night go?

Should have been asleep
When I was sitting there, drinking beer
And trying to start another letter to you
Don't know how many times I dreamed to write again last night

Should've been asleep
When I turned the stack of records over and over
So I wouldn't be up by myself
Where did the night go?

Should go to sleep now
And say "Hell yeah, f..ck a job and money"
Because I spend it all on unlined paper and can't get past
"Dear baby, how are you?"
Brush my teeth and shave
Look outside, sky is dark
Think it might rain
Where did...?
Where did...?
Where did...?

Where did the night go?
Oh God, I must be dreaming
Sky is dark, think it might rain
Sky is dark, oh God, I must be dreaming
Sky is dark, think it might rain
Sky is dark, oh God, I must be dreaming
Sky is dark, think it might rain
Sky is dark, oh God, I must be dreaming

Should've been asleep
When I turned the stack of records over and over
And over and over and over
And over and over and over
And over and over and over

Sky is dark, think it might rain
Sky is dark, oh God, I must be dreaming

Where did the night go?
