You and the night and the music
|
fill me with flaming desire
|
Setting my being completely
|
on fire!
|
You and the night and the music
|
thrill me but will we be one
|
After the night
|
and the music are done?
|
Until the pale light
|
of dawning and daylight
|
our hearts will be
|
throbbing guitars
|
Morning may come without warning
|
and take away the stars
|
If we must live for the moment
|
love till the moment is through!
|
After the night and the music
|
die will I have you?
|
<Interlude>
|
You and the night and the music
|
fill me with flaming desire
|
Setting my being completely
|
on fire!
|
You and the night and the music
|
thrill me but will we be one
|
After the night
|
and the music are done?
|
Until the pale light
|
of dawning and daylight
|
our hearts will be
|
throbbing guitars
|
Morning may come without warning
|
and take away the stars
|
If we must live for the moment
|
love till the moment is through!
|
After the night and the music
|
die will I have you?
|
, huh
|
And if they did, don't get all
|
arrogant cause that's my kid
|
Just be thankful
|
that it's good and somebody
|
overstood
|
Now, the listener in here
|
want the same flow but I gotta
|
let it grow
|
Clever enough to let it go
|
if I don't wanna rap no mo'
|
And I'll make sure that no one
|
ever forgets
|
It's immortalized forever
|
on wax CD's and casettes
|
And when someone goes to the
|
store and purchases it for ten
|
The life cycle starts
|
all over again
|
And I was granted this
|
music as my soulmate
|
to procreate
|
and give back what I was given
|
a life worth livin And I
|
am Still Standing unscathed
|
Pain is for suckers to feel
|
MC's are running out of
|
things to say
|
and radio stations running out of
|
songs to play, shit!
|
We Still Standing, unscathed
|
And pain is for suckers to feel
|
And MC's running out of
|
things to say...
