Song

IF THE NIGHT
(Chris Darrow)
by KALEIDOSCOPE
from Side Trips, 1967
Intro:
    
Verse 1:
If the night proves too black for you 
And its mysteries hide your kiss that's meant to fool 
Chorus:
Your way of life has left its mark, that's clear
Life for you is cheap while my mind's near   
Verse 2:
You played your tricks and now I've seen your game
You seek love and grasp it as a poor man who seeks fame
(Aahs over chorus chords)
Verse 3:
Your cheating kind has had its hold on me
And belief in a love that turned out not to be
(Chorus, ends on Em)
