Here in the city sweltering in the summer's heat
Below the rumble of the traffic on the street
It's here we lay our head, the stars our featherbed
The scent of danger on the breeze
And we won't pay the price tomorrow
For any wrong we've done today
Cause at this time of the night
Nothing travels past the daylight
Secrets stay tucked away so tight at this time of night
At this time of night
And in this timeless zone we let the games begin
It's our excuse for throwing caution the wind
So meet me there tonight, under the full moonlight
Perhaps to love is not to sin
We will not pay the price tomorrow
For any wrong we've done today
Cause at this time of the night
Nothing travels past the daylight
Secrets stay tucked away so tight at this time of night
At this time of night
In this private zone of twilight
We run it in the red
In this place they hold us harmless
For careless words we've said
In this private zone of twilight
We run it in the red
In this place they hold us harmless
For careless words we've said
Cause at this time of night
Nothing travels past the daylight
Secrets stay tucked away so tight
At this time of night
Cause at this time of night
Nothing travels past the daylight
Secrets stay tucked away so tight at this time of night
At this time of night
At this time of night
Some wonder what goes on above these streets
Behind the traffic in the summer's heat
(At this time of night)
At this time of night
(At this time of night)
At this time of night
