The Night Has a Thousand Eyes - John Coltrane

The night has a thousand eyes He s got the sharpest knife But I ve got a thousand lives I ve got a thousand lives You are just one of mine This cat gives me an extra 9 Speak louder, godfather, You want what s mine You know it s mine, You want what s mine I saw you, cat burglar So come inside, show your face to me The night has a thousand eyes You are just one of mine I ve got the eagle s sight Come inside, come inside Come inside, come inside.

Makin' my way downtown Walkin' fast, faces pass and I'm homebound Starin' blankly ahead Just makin' my way, makin' a way through the crowd And I need you And I miss you And now I wonder If I could fall into the sky Do you think time would pass me by? 'Cause you know I'd walk a thousand miles if I could just see you Tonight It's always times like these when I think of you And I wonder if you ever think of me 'Cause everything's so wrong, and I don't belong Livin' in your precious memory 'Cause I need you And I miss you And now I wonder If I could fall into the sky Do you think time would pass me by? 'Cause you know I'd walk a thousand miles if I could just see you Tonight And I, I don't wanna let you know I, I drown in your memory I, I don't wanna let this go I, I don't Makin' my way downtown Walkin' fast, faces pass and I'm homebound Starin' blankly ahead Makin' my way, makin' a way through the crowd And I still need you And I still miss you And now I wonder If I could fall into the sky Do you think time would pass me by? 'Cause you know I'd walk a thousand miles if I could just see you If I could fall into the sky Do you think time would pass me by? 'Cause you know I'd walk a thousand miles if I could just see you If I could just hold you Tonight

I saw you standing hand in hand But now you come to me the solitary man And I know what it is that made us live Such ordinary lives The where to go, the who to see No one could sympathize The smile has left your eyes The smile has left your eyes And I've become a rolling stone I don't know where to go Or what to call my own But I can see that black horizon Looming ever close to view It's over now, it's not my fault See how this feels for you The smile has left your eyes The smile has left your eyes I never thought I'd see you Standing there with him So don't come crawlin' back to me I saw you standing hand in hand But now you come to me the solitary man And I know what it is that made us live Such ordinary lives The where to go, the who to see No one could sympathize The smile has left your eyes Now it's too late you realized Now there's no one can sympathize Now that the smile has left your eyes Now it's too late you realized Now there's no one can sympathize Now it's too late you realized Now that the smile has left your eyes The smile has left your eyes
