SOMETHING IN THE NIGHT
(Wenrick / Kresa / Young)


Lee Morse - 1932





Oh, everything looks different, so different to me
Seems like I'm gazin' out of two different eyes
Lah-dah-dah-dah-doh
Now everything seems pleasant, so pleasant to see
All of this happened out of the clear blue sky

Somethin' in the tune they're playin'
Makes me hold you tight
Somethin' in the words you're sayin'
Somethin' in the night

One thing I can't help from seein'
Somethin' in your eyes
Oh, I know no human being
Luckier than I

Ev'rything's takin', takin' the turn
I wished it would take
Ev'rything's breakin', breakin' the way
I hoped it would break

Somethin' fills my heart with fire
While I hold you tight
Somethin' makes you my desire
Somethin' in the night

Somethin' in the tune they're playin'
Makes me hold you tight
And somethin' in the words you're sayin'
Somethin' in the night

One thing I can't help from seein'
Is somethin' in your eyes
Oh, I know no human being
Luckier than I

Ev'rything's takin', takin' the turn
I wished it would take
Ev'rything's breakin', breakin' the way
I hoped it would break

Somethin' fills my heart with fire
While I hold you tight
Aah, somethin' makes you my desire
Somethin' in the night
