Night-time Girl Lyrics - Fairport Convention

(Dave Swarbrick, Dave Pegg) 

Night-time girl, rocking in a chair 

Whiles her time away combing up her yellow hair 

Night-time girl, rocking in a chair 

Looking in the mirror with a wide eyed stare 

Night-time girl, when she's eager for the city 

Dresses for the ball and she looks so young and pretty 

Night-time girl, when she's eager for the city 

Dresses for the ball and she looks so young and pretty 

Night-time girl, there's a place they want to put you 

Night-time girl, they say you're insane 

Night-time girl, they tell me you're crazy 

Isn't that a crying shame 

Night-time girl, maybe all these changes 

Are stages of what I'm hoping 

Hard luck girl, your peace of mind 

Must seem a long time coming 

Night-time girl, there's a place they want to put you 

Night-time girl, they say you're insane 

Night-time girl, they tell me you're crazy 

Isn't that a crying shame 

Night-time girl, rocking in a chair 

Whiles her time away combing up her yellow hair 

Night-time girl, rocking in a chair 

Looking in a mirror with a wide eyed stare 

Night-time girl, they tell me you're crazy 

Night-time girl, they say you're insane 

Night-time girl, there's a place they want to put you 

Isn't that a crying shame
