Night To Go - Dalton Dover

Listen to me, baby There's something you must see I want to be with you, gal If you want to be with me But if you got to go It's alright But if you got to go, go now Or else you gotta stay all night It ain't that I'm questionin' you To take part in any quiz It's just that I ain't got no watch An' you keep askin' me what time it is So if you got to go It's alright But if you got to go, go now Or else you gotta stay all night I am just a poor boy, baby Lookin' to connect But I certainly don't want you thinkin' That I ain't got any respect So if you got to go It's alright But if you got to go, go now Or else you gotta stay all night You know I'd have a guilty conscience And I'd still need, too If I kept you from anything That you really want to do So if you got to go It's alright But if you got to go, go now Or else you gotta stay all night It ain't that I'm wantin' Anything you never gave before It's just that I'll be sleepin' soon It'll be too dark for you to find the door But if you got to go It's alright But if you got to go, go now Or else you gotta stay all night

No word from Tom. Has love no voice? Can love not keep a May-time vow in cities? Fades it as the rose cut for a rich display? Forgot! But no! To weep is not enough. He needs my help. Love hears, love knows, Love answers him Across the silent miles and goes. Quietly, night, oh! find him and caress. And may thou quiet find his heart, Although it be unkind. nor may its beat confess, Although I weep, it knows of loneliness. Guide me, oh! moon, chastely When I depart. And warmly be the same He watches without grief or shame. It can not be thou art a colder moon Upon a colder heart. My father! Can I desert him and his devotion For a love who has deserted me? No. My father has strength of purpose, While Tom is weak and needs The comfort of a helping hand. Oh God! protect dear Tom, Support my father and Strengthen my resolve. I go to him. Love can not falter, can not desert. Though it be shunned, or be forgotten, Though it be hurt, if love be love, It will not alter. Should I see my love in need, It shall not matter what he may be.

She was so young and now that we're burning They're scared because she's really gone And if it's going to be my destiny I don't want to wait till it comes to me I will work so hard my hands will hurt I will pay for my sins, if so in hell Serenade, serenade me They say I'm dry but I'm just sick Serenade me They say I'm cold but I'm just sick Serenade me And I relate to my best friend, she would advice me She broke our code and she put on her jacket Now it scares me because she's really gone And if it's going to be my destiny I don't want to wait till it comes to me I will work so hard my hands will hurt I will pay for my sins, if so in hell Serenade, serenade me They say I'm dry but I'm just sick Serenade me They say I'm cold but I'm just sick Serenade me And if it's going to be my destiny I don't want to wait till it comes to me I will work so hard my hands will hurt I will pay for my sins, if so in hell Serenade, serenade me They say I'm dry but I'm just sick Serenade me They say I'm cold but I'm just sick Serenade me Serenade me They say I'm dry but I'm just sick Serenade me

I know this dress I'm wearing doesn't hide the secret I have tried concealing When he left he promised me that he'd be back by the time it was revealing The sun behind a cloud just casts the crawling shadow o'er the fields of clover And the time is running out for me I wish that he would hurry down from Dover He's been gone so long when he left the show was deep upon the ground And I have seen a spring and summer pass and now the leaves are turning brown And any time a tiny face will show itself 'cause waiting's almost over But I won't have a name to give it if he doesn't hurry down from Dover My folks weren't understanding when they found out they sent me from the home place My daddy if folks found out he'd be ashamed to ever show his face My mamma said I was a fool and she did not believe it when I told her That everything would be all right 'cause soon he would be coming down from Dover I loved him more than anything and I could not refuse him when he needed me He was the only one I'd loved and I just can't believe that he was using me He couldn't leave me here like this I know it can't be so it can't be over He wouldn't make me go through this so long, oh he'll be coming down from Dover My body aches the time is here it's lonely in this place where I'm lyin' Out baby has been born but something's wrong it's much too still I hear no cryin' I guess in some strange way she knew she'd never have a father's arms to hold her And dying was her way of telling me he wasn't coming down from Dover

Under a microscope of apoplectic vision My face on a slide show, I look totally unhinged Forgot the Latin word, the name for this condition Said I felt sick to get attention Now this winter got an excuse to not go home Rented a house out on the coast Flying away, I heard a memory, your voice over the engine So full of remorse and apprehension Now that you're gone Now that I'm out here on my own It won't be long 'Til I have to pay for what I've done Tell me to stop Tell me to watch the way I talk 'Cause nothing is changing Don't want to state the obvious Threw up on the ferry ride from Calais back to Dover As pale as the white cliffs that we faced Wasn't afraid, eventualities, just knew that it was over No brushes with death could keep us sober If I was in London, I'd hold you to everything If we were in Cardiff, I'd just sing But I'm stuck in Omaha obsessed with my inventions There isn't a name for this condition Tell me I'm wrong Tell me you understand my love Tell me what's off What would you like to turn back on? Tell me what's gone Make me a list of what you lost 'Cause everything's changing Don't want to state the obvious Tell me what's wrong Tell me, I'll pay for what I've done Tell me what's up Pain like a big, red rubber ball I wish it would stop I wish I could tell you it was gone But nothing is changing Sorry to state the obvious Now that you're gone Tell me you understand my love Tell me what's wrong Make me a list of what you lost That's all that I want I'll pay for what I've done Nothing is changing To state the obvious, ah
