Scott Matthews Goodnight Day
Frozen in a still life of a day
Broken down and many miles away
Sleepy headlights paint black the way
Sunset melts this time and place
Paralysed by the falling snow
The rearview mirror shows me no road
And all I ever see
Is a figure of a man
In the shadow for company
Time to say goodnight to your woes
And to the love that you're holding close
I'm on my way
Time to say goodnight to the end
Of a day that just won't mend
Settle down, wishing goodnight day
Night speaks with its lips so cold
As sleep overtakes this desolate road
All I ever dream of is a comforting hand
That protects and settles me off
I forever long to be seen by your eyes
Your forgiveness is all I need
Time to say goodnight to your woes
And to the love that you're holding close
I'm on my way
Time to say goodnight to the end
Of a day that just won't mend
Settle down, wishing goodnight day
I'll soothe your woes
