Puttin' The Dark Back Into The Night

(album: The Boys Are Back - 1989)

The neon moon was looking over her shoulder
She was sipping wine and telling lots of tales
When the barflies are off the wall
It's hard to stand up straight and tall
When you're looking for someone to go your bail

She's putting the dark back into the night
She's got her heart on loose, thinking love ain't right
The future ain't lookin none too bright
So she's putting the dark back into the night

She gave her hand to a man who was only a lover
His cheating drove her jealously insane
Now the light at the end of the tunnel for her
Is just a memory of the way we were
And the look in her eye says she don't have to explain

She's putting the dark back into the night
She's got her heart on loose, thinking love ain't right
The future ain't lookin none too bright
So she's putting the dark, back into the night

You'll never know just what you'll do
When a broken heart comes from out of the blue
She's out on the run, she's ready to blow
She's out of her mind, she's lost in control

She's putting the dark back into the night
She's got her heart on loose, thinking love ain't right
The future ain't lookin none too bright
So she's putting the dark, back into the night

She's putting the dark back into the night
She's got her heart on loose, thinking love ain't right
The future ain't lookin none too bright
So she's putting the dark, back into the night
