Last Night Lyrics

Last Night

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
