Black Nights - Lowell Fulson

It used to be

I recall you were mine alone

But now I see

You wanna be left on your own

You must have someone new

To make me go through black nights

Oh, it used to be

We could have so much fun

Just you and me

When our workin' day was done

But now when I get home

To retire these bones

Black nights

It used to be

When you see my face you would smile

And comfort me

Your love me just like a child

But now you’re in some kind of daze

Little girl, you’ve changed your ways

Black nights

It used to be

Blacks nights were never known

Now it’s plain to see

I have these blues, now come on

Your love for me is softer than ever

And you’ll soon be on yourself

Black nights
