The Night Will Only Know Lyrics

The Night Will Only Know

That night will live forever 
Their first time to lie together 
They were finally where desire dared them to go 
Both belonging to another 
But longing to be lovers 
Promising each other that the night will only know 
Parked on some old backstreet 
They laid down in the backseat 
And fell into the fire down below 
But they would pay for their deceving 
For a deadly web was weaving 
Why they picked that spot that evening 
Lord, the night will only know 
Well within the innuendos 
Just outside the steamy windows 
The night was shattered by a woman's scream 
Motionless and frightened 
The grip of fate had tightened 
And with trembling hands they wiped away the steam 
They saw a woman pleading 
Stumbling, begging, and retreating 
'Til she became the victim of a foe 
And they watched her fall in silence 
To save their own alliance 
But the reason for the violence 
Just the night will only know 
And every paper ran the story 
She was stripped of all her glory 
And they told exactly how the woman died 
Abandoned and forsaken 
Too many pills were taken 
And they ruled the woman's death a suicide 
Bound by their behavior 
They could have been her savior 
Now guilt becomes an endless debt they owe 
But another crime was committed 
And it's never been admitted 
Have the guilty been acquitted 
Lord, the night will only know
