(J. Jett/R. Cantor/M. Caruso) |
|
I go out about five |
|
I gotta job to stay alive |
|
Downtown I'm so lost |
|
Every fool around me is my boss |
|
I can't wait to get back |
|
Leaning on your shoulder |
|
We don't sleep you play rough |
|
And when it comes to going down we never get enough |
|
Long live the night |
|
When I can hold my head up high |
|
Long live the night |
|
Cause I know you'll be standing by |
|
And all day I'm just dirt |
|
Don't get no breaks just do the work |
|
I'm so bored I watch the clock |
|
And when the sun is down |
|
I finally get to stop |
|
And I love the things that we do |
|
You really work me over |
|
Don't have to crawl |
|
Life is mean |
|
Cause you make me so tall |
|
And I feel like a queen |
|
Long live the night |
|
When I can hold my head up high |
|
Long live the night |
|
Cause I know you'll be standing by |
|
Long live the night |
|
I'm in your arms and I'm all right |
|
Long live the night |
|
Just keep me from the morning light |
|
You and I have dreams so sweet no one can take away |
|
Til the day we're on our feet |
|
Keep me going cause we got the night |
|
And you know how to do me right |
|
Long live the night |
|
Long live the night |
|
Long live the night |
|
I'm in your arms and I'm all right |
|
Long live the night |
|
I'm safe until the morning light |
