--Night Birds--
Flying through the night
Floating on the wing
Through the city light
Night Birds, with the love they bring
Slowly they descend
Through the darkened sky
To the night again
Night Birds kiss the day goodbye.
--Easier Said Than Done--
Say, I don't miss you every day
Don't need you anyway
I can't take your love away
Ooh, but it's easier said than done
Can't shout out when you won
Can't have my love around
--Streetwalkin'--
I'm walkin' around on the street again
Thinking it out on my own
Help me get back on my feet again
Cause you know I can't make it alone
Streetwalkin...
Streetwalkin...
Streetwalkin...
--Invitations--
With a fleeting smile below the lazy eyes
And the face that's not attempting to disguise.
It's an open invitation showing all the signs
"Sample my supply"
And the fingers touch her hand below the lace,
She suggests a later time another place.
He accepts her invitation "Wanna spend some time?"
Written on her face.
Her stiletto heels go clicking through his head,
With the glossy invitation he mis-read.
And you'd think he couldn't fail to read between the lines,
Plays the fool instead.
--Out Of This World--
Sleep softly through a dream
See how it might have been
Two people in a scene
We're clear out of this world
Dreams always let me down
Sleep silencing the sound
That calls to the one I found
We're clear out of this world.
--Down On The Street--
Tonight's the night we've waited for
A time to sing and dance like never before
The street's alive with such a carnival air
An all-night dancin' party everywhere
You and I, we're happy to be
Just a part of this crazy scene
[chorus]
Down on the street
Shoutin', talkin', laughin', down on the street
Down on the street
Snappin' fingers, dancin', down on the street
Shoutin', talkin', laughin', down on the street
Down on the street
Tonight's the night you'll never forget
The best time in your life that you'll ever get
New lovers meet as they dance through the night
The moonlight falls on this magical sight.
You and I, we're happy to be
Just a part of this crazy scene
[chorus]
Down on the street
Shoutin', talkin', laughin', down on the street
Down on the street
Snappin' fingers, dancin', down on the street
Shoutin', talkin', laughin', down on the street
Down on the street

--Lonely Afternoon--
An old man walks along the path, it isn't raining anymore.
The hotel sign reflects upon a lorry parked below.
A kid goes walking home from school, and stands there at the door.
Behind the windows people sit waiting for the bus to go.
Another long, lonely afternoon away from you,
And a long, dark, lonely night ahead.
It's been a long, lonely afternoon here on my own,
Such a long, dark, lonely night ahead.
The heavy clouds are forming for another dark and rainy night.
A woman hurries home before the storm begins to break.
And as she turns to cross the street, waiting for the walking light,
She glances quickly at her watch, hoping that she won't be late.
Another long, lonely afternoon away from you,
And a long, dark, lonely night ahead.
It's been a long, lonely afternoon here on my own,
Such a long, dark, lonely night ahead.
--Lose Myself--
Dancin' through the night, next to you.
Close up and so tight, just we two.
People all around, disappear.
I lose myself in you, when you're near.
--Don't Say That Again--
(instrumental)
--Dark Is The Night--
Dark is the night,
Where is the star that lit my skies?
Gone is the light,
Hiding the hurt that fills my eyes.
