I've been watching you waltz all night Diane
|
Nobody's found a way behind your defenses
|
They never notice the zap gun in your hand
|
Until you're pointing it and stunning their senses
|
|
All night long, all night long
|
You'll shoot 'em down because you're waiting for somebody good to come on
|
All night long, all night long
|
But you'll be sleeping with the television on
|
|
You say you're looking for someone solid here
|
You can't be bothered with those `just for the night' boys
|
Tonight unless you take some kind of chances dear
|
Tomorrow morning you'll wake up with the white noise
|
|
All night long, all night long
|
You're only standing there 'cause somebody once did somebody wrong
|
All night long, all night long
|
But you'll be sleeping with the television on
|
|
Your eyes are saying talk to me, talk to me
|
But your attitude is "don't waste my time"
|
Your eyes are saying talk to me, talk to me
|
But you won't hear a word 'cause it just might be the same old line
|
|
This isn't easy for me to say Diane
|
I know you don't need anybody's protection
|
I really wish I was less of a thinking man
|
And more a fool who's not afraid of rejection
|
|
All night long, all night long
|
I'll just be standing here 'cause I know I don't have the guts to come on
|
All night long, all night long
|
And I'll be sleeping with the television on
|
|
Your eyes are saying talk to me, talk to me
|
But my attitude is "boy, don't waste your time"
|
Your eyes are saying talk to me, talk to me
|
But I won't say a word 'cause it just might be somebody else's same old line
|
|
All night long, all night long
|
We're only standing here 'cause somebody might do somebody wrong
|
All night long, all night long
|
And we'll be sleeping with the television on
|
Sleeping with the television on
|
Sleeping with the television on
|
