In the heart of the night
|
In the cool southern rain
|
There's a full moon in sight
|
Shinin' down on the Pontchartrain
|
And the river she rises
|
Just like she used to do
|
She's so full of surprises
|
She reminds me of you
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
In the heart of the night
|
In the heart of the night
|
In the heart of the night
|
Oh, down in New Orleans
|
|
There's a nightbird singing
|
Right on through till the dawn
|
And the streets are still ringing
|
With people carrying on
|
It's been so long waiting
|
Just to be here again
|
Anticipating
|
All the time I could spend
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
And I trust in your love
|
Never fallin' down
|
And I trust in your love
|
Just like I do in this town
|
Oh, never fallin' down
|
Oh, never fallin' down
|
|
In the heart of the night
|
In the cool fallin' rain
|
There's a full moon in sight
|
Shinin' down on the Pontchartrain
|
And the river she rises
|
Just like she used to do
|
She's so full of surprises (oh mama)
|
She reminds me of you (right here)
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
And I'm so glad to be back in New Orleans
|
Please don't wake me, don't shake me
|
If it's only, if it's only just a dream
|
Cause it's the only place that I can face
|
It makes me feel so right
|
Below that Dixie moon and lovin' you
|
In the heart of the night
|
