Heart Of The Night
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
In the heart of the night
In the cool southern rain
There's a full moon in sight
Shinin' down on the Pontchartrain
And the river she rises
Like she used to do
She's so full of surprises
She reminds me of you
In the heart of the night
In the heart of the night
In the heart of the night
Down in New Orleans
There's a nightbird singing
Right on through till the dawn
And the streets are still ringing
With people carrying on
Oh it's been so long waitin'
Just to be here again
Anticipatin'
All the time I could spend
In the heart of the night
In the heart of the night
In the heart of the night
And I trust in your love, never falling down
I trust in your love
Just like I do in this town, oh never falling down
Oh never falling down
In the heart of the night
In the cool fallin' rain
There's a full moon in sight
Shinin' down on the Pontchartrain
And the river she rises
Like she used to do
She's so full of surprises
She reminds me of you (right here)
In the heart of the night
In the heart of the night
In the heart of the night
Oh oh down in New Orleans
And I'm so glad to be back in New Orleans
Please don't wake me, don't shake me
If it's only, if it's only just a dream
'Cause it's the only place
That I can face, that makes me feels so right
Below that dixie moon and loving you
In the heart of the night
