The Night Inside Me Lyrics - Jackson Browne

I used to lay out in a field under the Milky Way 

With everything that I was feeling that I could not say 

With every doubt and every sorrow that was in my way 

Tearing around inside my head like it was there to stay 

Night in my eyes, the night inside me 

There where the shadows and the night could hide me 

Night in my eyes 

Sky full of stars turning over me 

Waiting for night to set me free 

I caught a ride into the city every chance I got 

I wasn't sure there was a name for the life I sought 

Now I'm a long way gone down the life I got 

I don't know how I believed some of the things I thought

Night in my eyes, the night inside me 

Here where the shadows gather to decide me 

Night in my eyes 

Out at the end of light and gravity 

Waiting for night 

It takes the night to clear all of this mess away 

The obligation, the burden and the light of day 

It takes the night to fall between the world I obey 

And a world where I hear angels play 

Maybe I should go back to Spain 

I walk around inside the questions of my day 

I navigate the inner reaches of my disarray 

I pass the altars where fools and thieves hold sway 

I wait for night to come and lift this dread away

Night in my eyes, the night inside me 

Here where the shadows and the light divide me 

Night in my eyes 

Night full of promise and uncertainty 

Waiting for night to set me free
