The Night Lyrics by Toni Basil

Rockula

0

[Verse 1]
Well, you can say that the night belongs to no one
And you can pray that the night will soon be over
[Pre-Chorus]
As the shadows fall
And the daylight slips away
[Chorus]
To the night, the night that lasts forever
The night that is your friend
A friend of pain and pleasure
And when the night, the night, you hear it calling
Calling out your name
But you will never ever be the same
[Post-Chorus]
(The night, the night that lasts forever)
(The night, hey, hey)
[Verse 2]
Well, you can say that the night is full of danger (Mm-mm)
But you know to the night, you're not a strangеr
Y'know what I mean?
[Pre-Chorus]
As the shadow falls (Ooh)
And the daylight slips away
[Chorus]
To thе night, the night that lasts forever
The night that is your friend
A friend of pain and pleasure
And when the night (Ooh), the night, you hear it calling
Calling out your name
You will never ever be the same (Mm-mm)
[Bridge]
Yo, girly girl, I'm back again
And all I wanna do is jam with my friends
And jammin' is what I'll do
And I will jam the house or jam it down on you
[Pre-Chorus]
As the shadows fall
And the daylight slips away
[Chorus]
To the night, the night that lasts forever
The night that is your friend
A friend of pain and pleasure
And when the night, the night, you hear it calling
Calling out your name
But you will never ever be the same
