There's a man on my street   He reminds me everyday   Better take what you can get    Cause there's nothing more than this    Daylight fades into the ground,    Oh Lord i need you now      CHORUS   Cover me with the red sky tonight   The promise of a better day to come   Sing over me an angelic symphony    Tell me everything will be all right   With the red sky tonight       We're so taken with our fear    That we're folded up in shame    With our feet nailed to the floor   We're the only ones to blame   I can't help but wonder why    Nobody bats an eye    You can see it in the faces    Of all the passers by      So, cover me with a red sky tonight   The promise of a better day to come   Sing over me an angelic symphony    Tell me everything will be all right       I sail into the sun   And when the day is done    I'll need you in the night    So wake me in the dark   I'll see you in the sun   When the day is done      Cover me with a red sky tonight   The promise of a better day to come   Sing over me an angelic symphony    Tell me everything will be all right   Tell me everything will be all right   Tell me everything will be all right      It's a red sky   It's a red sky   Tonight
