Thread Name: Lyr Req: Lord, You Made the Night Too Long
Subject: Lyr Add: LORD, YOU MADE THE NIGHT TOO LONG^^
OK, This from Jim Craig's " ... in a nutshell" recording, impeccably arranged and picked by himself (my comment)

You made the river flow, the flower grow
You made the weak and the strong
But Lord, you made the night too long

You made the robin sing, the song of spring
And me you gave a lonely song
Oh Lord, that's why the night is long

I've got a heart, I've got a cabin
Doors are open wide
But what good is a heart, what good is a cabin
If there's no one inside

You made the mountain high, the earth, the sky
So who am I to say you're wrong
But Lord, you made the night too long

repeat previous two; vamp out Yeah, the night's too long
You made the night too long ^^

this tape is copyright 1987, and I know the address is wrong, but as mentioned previously, Jim is now owner of Hogeye Music, right on the chicago border, in Evanston IL.
