THIS IS THE NIGHT
(Ritchie Adams / Mark Barkan)
The Archies - 1971


Don't you cry, and don't be afraid
Just let my love sweep you away
We've been waitin' for too long
With a love so wild, a love so strong...

Oh, oh, oh, oh
This is the night
Mmm mmm mmm mmm
The time is right
Hey-eh-eh-ey
Come hold me tight,
Oh, my, this is the night,
Oh, my, this is the night.

See the stars doin' their thing
Feel the breeze, hear the birds sing
Mother Nature has given her cue,
Now the whole world is waitin' for me and you.

Oh, oh, oh, oh
This is the night
Mmm mmm mmm mmm
The time is right
Hey-eh-eh-ey
Come hold me tight,
Oh, my, this is the night,
Oh, my, this is the night.

Feel so good, kissin' your lips
Paradise at my fingertips.
We may have missed a lot before
But we'll make it up forevermore.

Oh, come on... (repeat chorus and fade)
