Night Must Fall

Never thought we'd ever end
I can't afford to lose more friends
Not to have you close at hand
Wasn't quite what I had planned
(It's that time)
Is it that time?
A moment that will pass
(Yes, it's that time)
Is it that time?
We knew it couldn't last

I'm just trying to catch my breath
A heart that beats itself to death
Panic stricken by the thought
You're not here for my support
(But its that time)
Is it that time?
A curtain has to fall
(Yes, it's that time)
Is it that time?
The writing's on the wall
(You're in your prime )
You're in your prime now, darling
And that's the worst of all
It's just that time
Night must fall
I'm so lonely
I'm so sorry

Can we ever justify
Letting sleeping hatred lie?
In the trenches hand-to-hand
Is the measure of a man
Am I a man?
(It's that time)
Is it that time?
The light has almost gone
(Yes, it's that time)
Is it that time?
The carnival moves on
You're in your prime
(You're in your prime now, darling)
And you did nothing wrong
It's just that time
Night has come
