Last night |
|
You know you really really |
|
made me appreciate my life |
|
When you took me to the seventh floor |
|
And closed the door |
|
I didn't stand a chance |
|
Oh oh that night |
|
When my conscience was losing |
|
in that age old fight |
|
Now I've always been a non-believer |
|
A true deceiver |
|
A hit and run romance |
|
Don't you know that when we turned out the light |
|
We were riding on the crest of a tidal wave |
|
Like we were ships in the night |
|
Going nowhere |
|
Last night |
|
When the feeling was missing |
|
but the mood was right |
|
From the moment we took the floor |
|
I knew for sure |
|
We'd play the parts we're expected to |
|
I've done it so many times |
|
Man we're all inmates of the human zoo |
|
Our bodies in control of our minds |
|
I played the jester and you played the fool |
|
You kept forgetting your lines |
|
I had to prompt you with a bourbon or two |
|
Huh, you planned to come all the time |
|
But when we turned out the light |
|
We were riding on the crest of a tidal wave |
|
Like we were ships in the night |
|
Going nowhere (nowhere) |
|
Oh last night |
|
You know you really really |
|
gave me something to write about |
|
In the morning it was just the same |
|
I'd lost again |
|
But it won't take me long to forget |
|
Oh oh last night |
