When Night Comes

When Night Comes

When night comes and the winds howl while you walk the halls alone
When night comes and the rains fall, there’s a knock on the door but no one is there
When night comes and the cat hisses out at you while you stub your toe and it does turn blue
When night comes and the clock tick tocks and you find that you have a hole in your good socks
When night comes and the floor boards creak, as the mouse runs away going squeak, squeak, squeak
When night comes and your popcorn burns and you lost your place in your book because the pages turn
When night comes and your tea goes cold you sigh and moan wishing she would come home
