The Lyrics to this song is presented below in case you'll need them





Black night is not right,

I don't feel so bright,

I don't care to sit tight.

Maybe I'll find on the way down the line

that I'm free, free to be me.

Black night is a long way from home.



I don't need a dark tree,

I don't want a rough sea,

I can't feel, I can't see.

Maybe I'll find on the way down the line

that I'm free, free to be me.

Black night is a long way from home.



Black night, black night,

I don't need black night,

I can't see dark night.

Maybe I'll find on the way down the line

that I'm free, free to be me.

Black night is a long way from home.
