The afternoon has gently passed me by
The evening spreads its sail against the sky
Waiting for tomorrow
Just another day
Zapping this yesterday goodbye
Bring on the night
I couldn't spend another hour of daylight
Bring on the night
I couldn't stand another hour of daylight
The future is but a question mark
Hangs above my head there in the dark
Can't see for the brightness
Is staring me blind
Zapping this yesterday goodbye
Bring on the night
I couldn't spend another hour of daylight
Bring on the night
I couldn't stand another hour of daylight
The evening spreads its sail against the sky
Waiting for tomorrow
Just another day
Zapping this yesterday goodbye
Bring on the night
I couldn't spend another hour of daylight
Bring on the night
I couldn't stand another hour of daylight
The future is but a question mark
Hangs above my head there in the dark
Can't see for the brightness
Is staring me blind
Zapping this yesterday goodbye
Bring on the night
I couldn't spend another hour of daylight
Bring on the night
I couldn't stand another hour of daylight

ZAPPING?!?!?! For 45 years I thought it was 'as I bid ... yesterday goodbye'

I've commented on this song before, but I think this is the prototypical and best Police song. I can't think of anything better they've done.

Anyone recall the first Police Picnic in Oakville Ontario, summer of '81? The farm field? The line-up was craze balls...Oingo Boingo, The Go-Go's, Iggy Pop ffs...and, of course, The Police...at almost midnight in the most bizarre setting ever. Oakville couldn't be any more staid and stuffy...except for one awesome day when the giant haze of wafting weed smoke must have loosened at least a couple of the puckered gentrified butt holes downwind....

They're far better musicians than most people are aware of. Sting's bass line in this song is so tight, showing he is as accomplished as Stewart and Andy at his instrument.
maybe I missed the comment but the bass line is fantastic on this song, as well as the guitar and the drums. Not my favorite Police tune but all together brilliant!

What a refreshing trip when it came out! It rocked things up on our favorite FM stations and landed often upon our turntables and tape-decks...
Winter Solstice anyone?

Had a chance to see The Police in '79, probably would have been this tour. Didn't go and regret it to this day! I thought they were some kind of punk band. Wrong...
Oh my God this song is amazing. The Police were so good. I saw them in concert in 2008. Fantastic.
The Bring on the Night with the American jazz men has a great version of this and many others. Not heard any of the tracks on RP, they would be a grand fit.
This whole album is just fantastic.

All I had heard at that point was Roxanne, and I didn't like that song so I blew it off. This is still my favorite Police record and I kick myself for not going to the show, and likely hanging with the band afterwards.
Used to work in a record shop and a record rep told me of a warm up gig in a club for a new group who were going to be big. Course did not go and yes it was The Police and regretted it every since.

In latinamerica some bands got together and made a tribute to the police album. The cover for this song by Gustavo Cerati (from mitic argentinan band Soda Stereo) with Andy Summers is one of my favorites covers ever.

This was the best sound that came out of the music scene in the late seventies. And there was a lot of competition at the time! The Police were the coolest band of all time IMO. Sting's appearance in the Who film Quadrophenia was timely and brilliant. I've followed Sting's music ever since this album was released. A true hero of mine.
A very arresting group, as always.
Thanks Bill. Awesome song. Would be great to hear some other lesser known tracks from this album too...

The story related to this song is very interesting and hard to imagine what is all about. One of my favorites.
10+. This is another 'Epic' tune for me. from the opening note - where I go scrambling to turn up the volume, all the way through - when nothing else gets done.

This gets one of my very limited votes for 'Epic'. A tune that always gets turned up.
The police post punk/pre-synchronicity were just about perfect.

The distorted lead over the pure arpeggios, and then Sting's almost electric voice. Too bad these guys haven't gotten back together in a songwriting reunion.

Ha! This is very true. Copeland was an angry young man out to prove his talent and worth to a disapproving father (I'd guess). The Police was supposed to be his project, his shot at approval. Sting's talent and front-man good looks pretty much made the band more of a Sting project and I think Copeland looked around with lot's of resentment and decided to blame Sting... is my guess.
Recently read Stewart Copeland's autobiography ("Strange Things Happen"). It was an easy read, and fun, but completely self-absorbed. That made me re-evaluate everyone's opinion that Sting is an egotistical asshole.
If he is, then it's quite likely there were at least two egotistical assholes in the Police.

The opening bass line of this song is epic. I think we should all get 5 votes for "epic" that we could use for our ultra-favorite songs. This would get two of mine.

Sting gets a lot of stick, particularly from the Brits. Can someone explain to me why? He doesn't seem so obviously up his own posterior like many other big names out there, and he is unquestionably a really talented musician. What's the problem people have with him?

One of my favorite Police tunes.

Man, I love these guys. I wish Sting wasn't such an a-hole, he's a phenomenal musician. Just for clarification, I don't think he's an a-hole, but Andy and Stewart do...imagine how much more The Police could have produced if they hadn't wanted to kill Sting back in the 1980's
Nice songs

Not a big fan of Police but for whatever reason I like this one.
Nice counter weight to Botswana at the time?

Like many of the songs from this band, it starts well, but the tediously repetitive lyrics are really irritating me before the end.

Although typically done in Reggae music...when the bass drum is used as the upbeat it creates a real pocket as this does. Using this element of rhythm in Rock music is fun and basically why I think Police succeeded as being different when they first hit the music scene. They were mislabeled as sort of "ska" rock for this very reason.
Brilliant stuff.like the old police, can't stop to sing along with this

Bands go through different phases with their music. The Police seem to have done each phase very well. This is one of their best songs from their early, still reggae-influenced period. Great song and a great album.

Was the double live album taken from the movie, or was it recorded separately? Did it have the same band?
Whatever the case, I'll check it out - thanks!
If you can, Its called "Bring on the Night" and I think it was recorded over the course of 6 shows in Europe. Not the same performances as shown in the movie in the movie. First CD I ever bought.
There's a neat back story that goes with the recording of "Dream of the Blue Turtles" where Sting basically took Wynton Marsalis' backup band crystallizing an anti-rock prejudice Wynton was developing. To pour salt in the wound, Wynton's little brother Branford is the featured Sax soloist.

SOme of you may not know this but in 1998 a Police tribute album was compiled in latin america. The cover of this song between Andy Summers himself and Gustavo Cerati (a latin America rock legend, know sadly in a coma) is simply amazing. The name of the album is Outlandos D'Americas here is a link to the song
