The Hardest Part Is The Night
In the heat of the street of the city
A young boy hides the pain
And he walks so tall, trying to hang on
But he knows hes going down again
I know hes going down...
Darkness fades hes the prince of his city
In a place where they all know your name
You can see in their eyes life so paralyzed.
Your just a pawn in a losin game
You lose at life it aint no game
Chorus:
Hear their cries
The hardest part is the night
(in the night, hear their cries, in the night)
Stay alive
The hardest part is the night, its the night, its the night...
All alone in a place where the lonely
They all have to walk through the rain
And they dance on the edge where you only
Only pray that it has to end
That the night aint no friend
Chorus
These four walls they could tell you some stories
About lying and dying and fame
Theres a price that you pay for the glory
About losing and choosing and pain.
Chorus

Night Of The Wolf
Streets are full of rain
Lightning cracks the sky
Hear a lonely cry, eyes full of pain
Searchin in the darkness
Eyes pierce the night
Calling for her young one
As she walks towards the light
Its the night of the wolf
Hear the cry of the wolf
Streets paved with gold
Night gives out a warning
Theres thunder in her heart
And mother wolf is calling
Searchin in the shadows
For the one she must save
She cries out a prayer
Like a song from beyond the grave
The bells will toll
No one will sleep tonight
While she alone will
Walk the streets tonight
Sun begins to rise
All the streets washed with rain
Still hear her cries
Eyes burnt with pain
Returning to the twilight
Betrayed by the night
Screaming for her young one
As she walks towards the light

Last Night
She was there at the bar, she heard my guitar
She was long and tall, she was the queen of them all
Last night, thinking about last night
Last night, thinking about last night
She was dark and discreet, she was light on her feet
We went up to her room and she lowered the boom
Last night, thinking about last night
Last night, thinking about last night
Down below they danced and sang in the street
While up above the walls were steaming with heat
Last night, thinking about last night
Last night, thinking about last night
I was feeling no pain, feeling good in my brain
I looked in her eyes, they were full of surprise
Last night, talking about last night
Last night, talking about last night
I asked her to marry me she smiled and pulled out a knife
The partys just beginning she said, its your money or you life
Last night, talking about last night
Last night, talking about last night
Now Im back at the bar, she went a little too far
She done me wrong, all I got is this song
Last night, thinking about last night
Last night, thinking about last night

City Night
Night is lively.
Night is stunning
Night is pleasurable.
Night is sugary like apple pie.
Night is walking towards with hobo.
Night will never end.
Night is dark.
Night is now simple, sweet, calm, amusing.
I am in love with this city night.
City is covered with this pleasant night.
Night is having the shine of city.
Night is getting wilder.
Night is getting cruel.
Time will never stop running.
Night will over with the time.
Another night will come in this city.
I am waiting for the night.
Here city shed tears
Here city chuckle like a little kid.
Here city dance with the mysterious wind.
I am in love with this city night.
Night never stops coming.
Night will never break its rule.
It will come over and over in this cold blooded city.
But I will never stop loving this city night.
Night is resting.
It will come again into my little black book.

Rocketown
Words & music: michael w. smith and wayne kirkpatrick
A friday night affair
Out in the city heat
Always a party there
Along the sordid street
And it was guaranteed
The place to be was rocketown
The drinks were two for one
Inside the crowded bars
The girls would make their run
Out on the boulevard
It was the idol place
We lived the ways of rocketown
Hang around by the street light
In the heart of the night life
There came a certain man
A stranger to the crowd
We didnt understand
What he was all about
He walked a different pace
So out of place in rocketown
They made a fool of him
They teased him when hed speak
But when they knocked him down
Hed turn the other cheek
He told me I could find
A life outside of rocketown
Hang around by the street light
In the heart of the night life
Chorus:
What was his mission
Where was he going
Why was his heart light
Always glowing
All I was missing
He stood there holding
What was his secret
Could I know it
Some didnt like him near
Some laughed and turned away
But me, I longed to hear
All that he had to say
He had a peace of mind
I couldnt find in rocketown
And when I reached down inside me
I could feel the emptiness
Chorus
He said its in the heart
This change that comes to be
Now he had done his part
The choice was up to me
As we were standing there
He said a prayer for rocketown
As we were standing there
He said a prayer for rocketown
As we were standing there
He said a prayer for rocketown
He walked off silently
And prayed for me
And rocketown...

Sometimes She Cries
Mercy don't think she's pretty no more
Staring at the stars through her back screen door
She tries and tries to make it all work out
No matter what she does
She's left standin in the middle of doubt
CHORUS
In a lonely night
And in the pourin rain
You can count on me
Sometimes she cries
When shes alone at night
Sometimes she weeps
When she's feeling cold and weak
Sometimes the pain
It tears her up inside
Sometimes she cries
Ooh, I wonder why
Mercy don't have a love no more
Plays with her pillow
Stares at the bedroom floor
Used to have a million
They've come and gone
No matter what she does
She can't figure out what she's doin' wrong
CHORUS
Living, loving, give it everything you've got
After all the heartache
Maybe give love just one more shot, yeah
In a lonely night
And in the pourin rain
The only thing I really wanna know is why
Sometimes she cries
When she's alone at night
Sometimes she weeps
When she's feelin cold and weak
Sometimes the pain
It tears her up inside
Sometimes she cries

Night After Night
by Bob Dylan
Night after night you wander the streets of my mind.
Night after night don't know what you think you will find.
No place to go, nowhere to turn,
Everything around you seems to burn, burn, burn.
And there's never any mercy night after night.
Night after night
Night after night
Night after night some new plan to blow up the world.
Night after night another old man kissing some young girl.
You look for salvation, you find none.
Just another broken heart, another barrel of a gun,
Just another stick of dynamite night after night.
Night after night
Night after night
Night after night you drop dead in your bed,
Night after night another bottle finds a head.
Night after night I think about cutting you loose
But I just can't do it, what would be the use?
So I just keep a holding you tight night after night.
Night after night
Night after night
Night after night
Night after night

Whispers From Other Sky
Cries the night in silence
Covers up the starshine
By the tears of darkness
Cries the night!
Cries the night unaware
Words of pain
Whispers of harassing
Cries the night!
Fade away the rashness
Fall down the mercy plea
With the last shadow
On the earth!
Dying eyes...beholding!
Dying ears...hearing!
Feeling from the other
Other sky!
Whispers from the other sky!!!
Whispers from the other sky!!!
Other sky unknowing
Oh!
Beyond the end
Kingdom of the other
Viskningar!

Another Saturday Night
Another saturday night
By: sam cooke
Chorus:
Another saturday night and I aint got nobody
Ive got some money cause I just got paid
How I wish I had someone to talk to

If I could meet em I could get em
But as yet I havent met em
Thats why Im in the shape Im in
Chorus:
Oh, another saturday night and I aint got nobody
Ive got some money cause I just got paid
How I wish I had someone to talk to

Now another fella told me
He had a sister who looked just fine
Instead of being my deliverance
She had a strange resemblance
To a cat name frankenstein
Chorus:
Oh, another saturday night and I aint got nobody
Ive got some money cause I just got paid
How I wish I had some chick to talk to
Im in an awful way
Chorus:
Yeah, another saturday night and I aint got nobody

How I wish I had someone to talk to

When he dont know his way around
If I dont find me a honey
To help me spend this money
Im headin back to key west town
Chorus:
Oh, another saturday night and I aint got nobody
Ive got some money cause I just got paid
How I wish I had someone to talk to

Thousand Eyes
Chorus
The night has a thousand eyes
And theyre all on you
The night has a thousand ears
Listening to your cries
Let it work its magic
Let it work its magic
The night has a thousand eyes
Verse 1
You, you had to slip away
After all that spark
You, said all that you could say
And slipped into the dark
I could not let you go
Alone into the night
I had to let you know
The magic there, in the night air
Chorus
The night has a thousand eyes
And theyre all on you
The night has a thousand ears
Listening to your cries
Let it work its magic
Let it work its magic
The night has a thousand eyes
Verse 2
You, somewhere out in the dark
Runs a wounded heart
You, stumbling in the night
In the air of after light
You take along the fears
Did you waste these years,
And did they warn you
Of the night zone all alone
Sometimes it takes a fight
To keep everything on track,
And sometimes it takes a starry night
To bring the magic back
This was the time
And this was the place
With starlight on your face
And the moon on the rise,
The night has a thousand eyes

When The Night Comes Down
Jimmy got lost, in a schoolboy phase
You see the lines got crossed, at a young and tender age
He dropped out of school, and the new crowd hed meet
He left his broken home, for a new life, out on the street
See the young boys laugh, gettin high on a midnight run
Theyve got it all figure out, they dont need no help
From anyone
Jimmy never knew real love in his heart
No feelings remain
Somehow he knew hed never be a part
So alone with his pain
When the night comes down
Out there on the streets, so many sad, sad stories
When the night comes down
Theyre runnin out of hope, in this land of glory
Theyre runnin in the night
See the young boy cry, hes cryin out, all alone
And the hurt inside, hes gotta face it all on his own
And the church bells ring, and the lord is praised
But they aint got time for jimmy, on their holy, holy days
Jimmy never felt real love in his heart
No feelings remain
Somehow he knew hed never be a part
So alone with his pain
When the night comes down
Out there on the streets, so many sad, sad stories
When the night comes down
Theyre runnin out of hope, in this land of glory
When the night comes down
Its a cold hearted town, nothin but a battleground
And theyre runnin out of hope, ooh, when the night
Comes down
On this battleground
So many, so many sad, sad stories
You can see it every night
When the night comes down
See the young boy cry

Just Another Lonely Night
Michael stokes & linda stokes
Intro:
Lonely night, just one lonely night
Without you
Lonely night, just one lonely night
Without you
I remember that could september
You packed your bags and you went away
You were my only love
But you were searching for
A better life in l.a.
Oh this loneliness Im feeling
Has got my body chilling
Im in need of your touch
Wont you rescue my desire
I long to feel your fire
Im in need of your love
Chorus:
Just another night
Just another lonely night
Without you, baby
Just another night
Just another lonely night
Without you, baby
Cloudy skies look like theyre here to stay
And the sun no longer lights up my day
I wish the phone would ring
Such joy your voice would bring
I miss the stars that shine my way
Is there someone else in your heart
Thrilling you with his charms
While Im lying here alone
We never seem to meet
Down this rocky road of love
Cant you see its you Im thinking of
Chorus
Bridge:
My days are cold
And my nights are so lonely
Im like a bird without a song
Like the saying goes
Theres too many fish in the sea
Deep down inside I knew
That you were meant for me

Rhythm Of The Night
When it feels like the world is on your shoulders
And all the madness has got you going crazy, its time to get out
Step out into the street where all of the action is right there at
Your
Feet
Well, I know a place where we can dance the whole night away
Underneath the electric stars
Just come with me, and we can shake it loose right away
Youll be doing fine once the music starts, oh
Chorus:
Feel the beat of the rhythm of the night
Dance until the morning light
Forget about the worries on your mind
cause you can leave them all behind
Feel the beat of the rhythm of the night
Oh, rhythm of the night
Look out on the street, now, the partys just beginning
The musics playing, a celebrations starting
Under the streetlights, the scene is being set
A night for romance, a night you wont forget
So come join the fun, this aint no time to be staying home
Theres too much going on
Tonight is gonna be a night like youve never known
Were gonna have a good time the whole night long
Repeat chorus
I know a place where we can dance the whole night away
Underneath the electric stars
Just come with me, and we can shake it loose right away
Youll be doing fine once the music starts, oh
Repeat chorus to fade

Going To Dance All Night (album Mix)
I wonder what I'm doing standing here
As I'm watching the wall and I slowly lose my mind
You are lucky you can go slower cause you're feeling fine
But I'm not
I've got a feeling i'm really gonna blow
If i dont change my mind
Something I couldn't regret
Huh something I shouldn't regret
So I'll never fall again
And if it doesnt feel right then I would rather stay at my house
It's not a tradgety
huh
I'm going out to find a place to be
where I'll find me a ladyfriend
that knows where to dig to find somethin'
that can get me goin and I'll never ever stop
even if the story's gonna end
I gotta get out
I gotta do it till I'm feelin alright
from down there
I don't know but
I hear that bass drum that plays
and I'm
Going to dance all night
to dance all night
and im going to never stop
to dance all night
i'm gonna go
Going to dance all night
to dance all night
and i'm never gonna stop
to dance all night
i gotta go
So what is it that really counts today
Just to carry on don't you really feel alive?
I feel the answer is arising deep from within
huh from within
I'm pretty sure you're running you'll know exactly where its gonna end
and who you're choosing tonight heh
with whom you'll soon be lying
So I'll never fall again
And if it doesnt feel right then I would rather stay at my house
It's not a tradgety

I'm going out to find a place to be
where I'll find me a ladyfriend

Lonely In The Night
Im runnin tired of this deception
I have no wish to play this game
Too many times a bad connection
And youre still holding me away
Were living under false pretenses
Foolin ourselves, believe the lies
I could not take one more rejection
You wanted more but would not try
Somethings gone wrong with us
Something aint right
Why are we lonely in the night
Why are we lonely in the night
Were trapped within our own defenses
The walls we made all look the same
There is no love without affection
Weve come to far to break the chain
Somethings gone wrong with us
Something aint right
Why are we lonely in the night
Why are we lonely in the night
Im growing tired of this deception
We fall apart and wonder why?
Our hearts now pull in new directions
We dont know how to say goodbye
Somethings gone wrong with us
Something aint right
Why are we lonely in the night
Why are we lonely in the night
Somethings gone wrong with us
Something aint right
Why are we lonely in the night
Why are we lonely in the night

One Night A Day
Theres not a lot of things to do
I wouldnt rather do with you
Guess Im funny that way
Lately I just sit and stare
I talk to people who arent there
To get through one night a day.
(chorus)
One night a day
One step away
From leavin you behind
I sit up with the radio
Sing along with the ones I know
To get through one night a day.
*chorus*
Im callin every friend Ive had
Wake em up, and make em mad
Let em know that Im okay.
I used to sit and talk to you
Theyre all just a substitute
To get through one night a day.

I stay up with the late, late show
Just another way I know
To get through one night a day

Did We Really Ever Try
(J.P. Maunick / M. Edwards)
Chorus:
Did we really ever try to understand each other?
Or was it just a game that sometimes people play?
Did we really ever see eye to eye, I wonder?
Was it just a game that sometimes people play?
[Sometimes people play]
I wonder if
We ever listened
To a word
That the other had to say
All that we shared
Our inner treasures
Are used against each other as we fall
Chorus
I wonder if
Before we started
We could have known
That the road would end this way
What makes us give
Our hearts so freely
Only to find that we're strangers after all
Chorus
Night and day, night and day, day and night
Night and day, people play, day and night
We fool ourselves
Into believing
Our difference will surely change in time
So we proceed
Blissfully blinded
Throwing caution to the wind along the way

Taxicab, taxicab at the light
Wont you take me on a ride
Through this city at night
I got some money and Im feelin fine
I aint no hurry so just take your time
Some people wanna die young and gloriously
Well taxicab driver, hey that aint me
I got a cute little baby
Down at 12th and vine
And she opens for business just about closin time
Ah hey hey, ah hey hey
City at night, city at night
I dont believe what I see in this street
I dont know how they can take the heat
Well baby Im a liar, Im a cheat
And I dont care
I got my money, I cant take my fare
Im ridin tonight, Im on my way
Cmon baby...
I can take it or live it, when it comes
Got my baby by the light of the sun
You know she brings it with her and then she comes
Hey, hey, city at night
Hey, hey, city at night

Prove It All Night
Ive been working real hard, trying to get my hands clean,
Tonight well drive that dusty road from monroe to angeline,
To buy you a gold ring and pretty dress of blue,
Baby just one kiss will get these things for you,
A kiss to seal our fate tonight,
A kiss to prove it all night.
(chorus)
Prove it all night,
Girl theres nothing else that we can do,
Sp prove it all night, prove it all night,
And girl Ill prove it all night for you.
Everybodys got a hunger, a hunger they cant resist,
Theres so much that you want, you deserve much more than this,
But if dreams came true, oh, wouldnt that be nice,
But this aint no dream were living through tonight,
Girl, you want it, you take it, you pay the price.
(chorus)
Prove it all night, prove it all night girl and call the bluff,
Prove it all night, prove it all night and girl,
I prove it all night for your love.
Baby, tie your hair back in a long white bow,
Meet me in the fields out behind the dynamo,
You hear the voices telling you not to go,
They made their choices and theyll never know,
What it means to steal, to cheat, to lie,
What its like to live and die.
(chorus)
To prove it all night...
