Ray Price - Girl At Night lyrics
rate meA girl in the night
She lives her life in honky tonks
and the crowded backstreet bars
A world of make believe that knows
no sun no moon or stars
Just a glitter of a great white way
and the glair of city lights
Where the music's loud she's in the crowd
a lonely girl in the night
I wonder if she's thinking
of dreams that didn't last
I wonder if she's haunted
by heartaches from the past
Perhaps there is a story
of a love that wasn't right
Now those shadows hide her empty pride
a lonely girl in the night
[ steel ]
I watch her sit there so lonely
as she lights her cigarette
And the smoke rings rise but in her eyes
oh it seems to be such a regret
Yes she's there to tempt her lover
and that dress that hugs her tight
With a glass of wine to pass a time
just a lonely girl in the night
I wonder if she's thinking
of dreams that didn't last
I wonder if she's haunted
by heartaches from the past
Perhaps there is a story
of a love that wasn't right
Now those shadows hide her empty pride
a lonely girl in the night
