Leaves burnt by the sun
|
And there's no wind blowing
|
See the motor cars with a smiling face at the wheel
|
I'm watching the little girls
|
With their young men at their heels
|
It's a sunny day
|
But get me back to the night
|
'Cause I love that life
|
Back to the night
|
Like a skinny burlesque queen
|
I love a neon
|
Skyline
|
|
Sweet smiling rose
|
The night life perfume
|
See the romeos dancing under the moon light
|
I see the night
|
Night was made for romance
|
You keep your sunny day
|
Just get me back to the night
|
'Cause I love that life
|
Back to the night
|
Like those skinny burlesque queens
|
I love a neon skyline
|
Got the card sharks hustling
|
At the break of the moon
|
Gay night walkers
|
Old blues buskers
|
All night long there's just so much to do
|
|
Just get me back to the night
|
Oh I love the life
|
Back to the night
|
Like a skinny burlesque queen
|
I love a neon skyline
|
