Frank Wildhorn - The Girls Of The Night lyrics

rate me

We're the pleasures of the night time that fade at dawn

Selling treasures of the night time 'til night is gone

And then when the party's over, everybody's gone away

We stare at an empty day, what is there to do or say?

Night time is where we live

Night is when we give everything we have to give

Most lovers can rejoice, we don't have a choice

We just know we have to give

That's why the day can never be bright

For the girls of the night

Somehow I know there's a someday that's just for me

Everybody has a someday, so why not me?

Lucy, do you really need to fill your heart with empty dreams?

You'll always be what you are, stop chasing that distant star

Night time is where we live

Night is when we give everything we have to give

Most lovers can rejoice, we don't have a choice

We just know we have to give

That's why the day can never be bright

For the girls of the night

Fly away, fly away, let me find my wings

Let me be the girl I want to be

I'm afraid to fly away, for all I have is here

I have my hopes

I have a child and children must be fed

Forget your hopes, or you will be misled

With the dawn they disappear

Then why are mine still here?

Fly away, fly away, fly away

Ask me to share your fantasies, dear

But don't ask me where tomorrow is

Don't ask me where to find happiness

Though I know for sure where sorrow is

Sorrow is where the dark meets the light

Someday I pray my fears will take flight

Sorrow is where all hope fades from sight

For the girls of the night

We're the girls of the night

Just the girls of the night
