Come In From The Night

(album: Chicago 19 - 1988)

How many times have I seen you running;
Just one step ahead of the past?
So many nights have I seen it coming;
I try to talk to you when you pass.

I don't know who you were before I met you;
You keep your secret safe with a mask.
It's almost as though the truth is out to get you;
You're just a runaway from the past.

Girl, we've got a love worth keeping.
Maybe there's a way to let it go.
Someday when your demons are sleeping,
Let me know, let me know.

Come out of the darkness, baby,
Come in from the night.
You can let the light
Wash it from your mind.
Open the blinds.

So many times have I seen you crying,
Never knowing what it's about.
I do my best, I just keep on trying
To find a way inside to let it out.

Girl, we've got a love worth making.
It would be a shame to close the show.
Now you got a chance worth taking,
Let me know, let me know.

Come out of the darkness, baby,
Come in from the night.
You can let the light
Wash it from your mind.

Come out of the darkness, baby,
Come in from the night.
Open up your life,
Leave the past behind.
Open up the blinds.
