Another Night Gets Longer

Another Night Gets Longer

Last night I thought I heard this voice

it was calling, whispering my name

But the silence came

Then the sweet sleeping sound of the pouring rain

Thrilling sights, a source of desires

the unexpectable fire comes

So I'll have my drink, gonna have my time

Gonna kick up my heels and this night will be mine

This time I will not fall back

And this time I will not regret

Of the choices made, or the things unsaid

'Cause I know that a storm's gonna come to wash it all away

(chorus)

People dance, people talk, people shine

While another night gets longer

Betting dimes, losing rhymes, it's alright

While another night gets longer

You'll find me alone sometimes

Following the lights or hidden in the dark

But my life for life just gets stronger

While another night gets longer

(and this night gets longer)

Bright lights - there I walk in disguise

But my home is heaven, it's my paradise

But when home is far

Sometimes destination is another bar

But I can't play the clown

Or a hero lost in a strange town

I'm a simple man, got my songs to write

And I've got these old movies in black and white

And I take my cup of tea

I'm addicted to a Parker's theme

When the 30's are here, got a little peace

And a picture of life in the way it was meant to be

(chorus)

I'll go again

Spread my thoughts thought this big city motion

I'll go again

Run back home and put music in my emotions

and play it on and on again
