Somewhere Other Than the Night

He could see the storm clouds rollin' across the hill

He barely beat the rain in from the field

And between the backdoor slammin' she heard him say

"Damn this rain and damn this wasted day"

But she'd been waitin' for this day for oh so long

She was standin' in the kitchen with nothin' but her apron on

And in disbelief he stood and he stared a while

When their eyes met, they both began to smile

Somewhere other than the night

She needs to hear I love you

Somewhere other than the night

She needs to know you care

She wants to know she's needed

She needs to be held tight

Somewhere other than the night

They spent the day wrapped up in a blanket

On the front porch swing

He'd come to realize he'd neglected certain things

And there are times she feels alone even by his side

It was the first time she ever saw him cry

Somewhere other than the night

She needs to hear I love you

Somewhere other than the night

She needs to know you care

She wants to know she's needed

She needs to be held tight

Somewhere other than the night

To know she's needed

She needs to be held tight

Somewhere other than the night
