"NIGHT MOVES"

I was a little too tall

Could've used a few pounds

Tight pants point hardly renowned

She was a black-haired beauty with big dark eyes

And points all her own sitting way up high

Way up firm and high

Out past the cornfields where the woods got heavy

Out in the back seat of my '60 Chevy

Workin' on mysteries without any clues

Workin' on our night moves

Tryin' to make some front page drive-in news

Workin' on our night moves

In the summertime

In the sweet summertime

We weren't in love, oh no, far from it

We weren't searchin' for some pie in the sky summit

We were just young and restless and bored

Livin' by the sword

And we'd steal away every chance we could

To the backroom, to the alley or the trusty woods

I used her, she used me

But neither one cared

We were gettin' our share

Workin' on our night moves

Tryin' to lose the awkward teenage blues

Workin' on our night moves

And it was summertime

Sweet, summertime, summertime

And oh the wonder

Felt the lightning, yeah

And waited on the thunder

Waited on the thunder

I woke last night to the sound of thunder

How far off I sat and wondered

Started hummin' a song from 1962

Ain't it funny how the night moves

When you just don't seem to have as much to lose

Strange how the night moves

With autumn closin' in

mmmm

night moves

mm (night moves)

night moves (night moves)

yeah (night moves)

I remember (night moves)

Ah sure remember the night moves (night moves)

aint it funny how you remember (night moves)

Funny how you remember (night moves)

I remember I remember I remember I remember (night moves)

oooohh ohh wohh

and we were workin'

workin and practicin (night moves)

workin and practicin (night moves) all of the night moves

night moves (night moves)

ooooh (night moves) I remember

yeah yeah yeah (night moves) I remember
