ABBA - IF IT WASN'T FOR THE NIGHTS

I got appointments, work I have to do
Keeping me so busy all the day through
They're the things that keep me from thinking of you
Baby, I miss you so, I know I'm never gonna make it
Oh, I'm so restless, I don't care what I say
And I lose my temper ten times a day
Still it's even worse when the night's on its way
It's bad, oh, so bad

Somehow I'd be doing alright if it wasn't for the nights
I'd have courage left to fight if it wasn't for the nights
How I fear the time when shadows start to fall
Sitting here alone and staring at the wall
Even I could see a light if it wasn't for the nights
Somehow I'd be doing alright if it wasn't for the nights

No one to turn to, you know how it is
I was not prepared for something like this
Now I see them clearly, the things that I miss
Baby, I feel so bad, I know I'm never gonna make it
I got my business to help me through the day
People I must write to, bills I must pay
But everything's so different when night's on its way
It's bad, oh, so bad

Somehow I'd be doing alright if it wasn't for the nights
I'd have courage left to fight if it wasn't for the nights
How I fear the time when shadows start to fall
Sitting here alone and staring at the wall
Even I could see a light if it wasn't for the nights
Guess my future would look bright if it wasn't for the nights

If it wasn't for the nights
if it wasn't for the nights

Even I could see a light if it wasn't for the nights
Guess my future would look bright if it wasn't for the nights

If it wasn't for the nights
If it wasn't for the nights

Even I could see a light if it wasn't for the nights
Guess my future would look bright if it wasn't for the nights
