The night's the night, whoevers spending it The night's not hers, but she is lending it A love to last? She's not pretending it So quickly passed, she's not defending it He talks of wine, his words cascading it An active life, his hands parading it To please him now, his eyes persuading it The night's a lie, there's no evading it The night's a fire This engine's speeding to The night's a crash This learning curve is leading to The night's a fire It's blue and black And broken, and bleeding too The night's embrace Will never stop me needing you The song that plays, the singers faking it The step they took, should not have taken it The beating heart, they both are breaking it The love they made, they start unmaking it.
