Russ Ballard: In the night [lyrics]

Russ Ballard

In the night

Two A.M. in the downtown street, there on a corner two strangers meet

In the night

And then until the daybreak, they're gonna love or then before light

A heart will break, there in the night

Look in the alley, along the road, there the losers stand

There in the rain they bide their time, hustling what they can

They bet just to get that bottle in their hand

There in the night, somewhere in the night

Oh, they do what they do, just to get through, there in the night

And on a street in the heart of town, the lady in black she turns around

In the night, yeah

She stares at the man in the Cadillac, he drives by but he'll be back, yeah

Before the light, there in the night

See the guy along the road, who can he be

Wait awhile he'll turn around, see the man is me

'Cos when I sleep I dream, dreams won't set me free

There in the night, somewhere in the night, yeah

Oh, we do what we do, just to get through, there in the night

When the sun goes down, there the night will wait

Then slowly move for the kill

If you would come back again, it would take away this pain

But I don't know if you ever will

There in the night, somewhere in the night

Oh, there in the night, somewhere in the night, yeah

(Solo)

Oh, there in the night, somewhere in the night

Oh, there in the night, somewhere in the night
