Two a.m. On a downtown street
There on the corner two strangers meet, In the night

And then until the daybreak
They're gonna love and before the light
heart may break, there in the night

Look in the alleys, along the roads, it's there the losers stand
There in the ring they bide their time, hustling what they can
They beg just to get
That bottle in their hand

There in the night
Somewhere in the night
Oh how they do what they do
Just to get through
There in the night...in the night

Then on the street in the heart of town
lady in black she turns around, in the night, yeah
She stares at the man in the Cadillac
He drives by but he'll back...for the night
There in the night

See the guy along the road who can he be?
Wait awhile, he'll turn around
See the man is me
'Cuz when I sing my dreams...my dreams will set me free

There in the night
Somewhere in the night
Oh how they do what they do
Just to get through
There in the night...in the night

When the sun goes down
And the light grows dim
Slowly movin' for the kill

If you [bad word] back again [bad word] back again)
It would take away this pain (take away this pain)
But I don't know if you ever will

Love in the night
Would feel so right
So love me tonight. . . In the night

Into the night
It feels so right
How could you do what you do
Yes you only you
There in, there in the night
Somewhere in the night
