They Only Come Out At Night

(album: Still In Your Dreams - 1988)

I've seen you out with your in crowd
Holding somebody and laughing loud
That was me, you know
Whose eyes were burning through you

Someone rings you late at night
But no one says hello at the end of your line
That was me, you know
Breathing warm in your ear

All day, I do fine
Those sweet old memories never cross my mind
Oh, they only come out at night

When you look out your window and it's three o' clock
Some fool's riding round and round your block
That's me, you know
Driving myself crazy

And when you hear a rustle or the back door squeak
Turn off the lights and go back to sleep
That's me, you know
Haunted by what used to be

All day, I do fine
Those sweet old memories never cross my mind
Oh, they only come out at night

All day, I do fine
Those sweet old memories never cross my mind
Oh, they only come out at night
Oh, they only come out at night
