It Was a Dark Night
It was a dark night
Not that it was that dark
It was a dark night
*
It rained
Should I run?
Should I stroll?
*
I could get soaking wet
I could suffer; slowly
It was a dark night
*
I looked at the moon
I looked at the stars
It was a dark night
*
I knew where I was going
It felt like I had lost my way
It was a dark night
*
I didn’t feel strong; almost feeble
Raging againt the autumn breeze
It was a dark night
*
Rainddrops kept falling
Not only those drops that hit the tarmac
It was a dark night
*
I remembered a night in London
After bedtime
After closing time
*
It had been a hot summer
It rained; cooling us down
She started dancing
*
My mind was set; on:
Getting her out of
Those wet clothes
*
It was a dark night
Until I thought of her
In the rain
