The best things in life don't come for free
the best always come unexpectedly
well we watch the clock and it comes as no surprise
'til the day is late and we let out a sigh
'cause we know the night could fall at any time

with the scissors and a comb i cut my lawn
and there's no one in the world I'm counting on
there's a war raging outside I hope my stays green
until the day is late and we let out a scream
'cause we know the night could fall down on its knees

We don't know the prime lending rate
and we don't know the pain of a broken date
we don't know what's wrong or what's right
we know the night, we know the night

You can bust your back from now 'til the sun goes west
the best things always come when your mind's at rest
in the afternoon my mind ain't sleepy it's pre-occupied
'til the day is late and we let out a sigh
'cause we know the night could fall at any time
yeah we know the night could fall at any time

we know the night, we know the night
