I Don't Want the Night to End

Oh mommy mommy

Oh mommy mommy, yeah

I stood too near the gaslight and I cried

The dirty city mist had seeped too deep inside

It took me on some kind of heady ride

It's only Charlie Parker died

And I, I don't want

I don't want the night to end

Oh daddy daddy

Oh daddy daddy, yeah

Waiting half my life on platforms underground

The other half I wasted as a desperate clown

My problem now is that you're not around

In dark delicious dreams of you I'll drown

And I, I don't want

I don't want the night to end

Oh baby baby

Oh baby baby baby baby baby, yeah

Wrapped around your soul is where I wanna be

But in the night blue music's all I seem to see

The drunks out in the rain down on one knee

And what, and what is to become of you and me

And I don't want

I don't want the night to end

I don't want, I don't want

I don't want the night to end

I don't want the night to end

I don't want the night to end
