THIEF IN THE NIGHT
(Harlan Howard)


Jean Shepard - 1958





This is our last kiss, our last moment of bliss
Darling, our love can never be right
For your ring's on her hand and my heart just can't stand
Stealin' love like a thief in the night

Never more shall we meet on some dimly lit street
Darlin', two wrongs just don't make a right
So I'm sending you home, for I just can't go on
Stealin' love like a thief in the night

(Instrumental Break)

Never more shall we meet on some dimly lit street
Darlin', two wrongs just don't make a right
So I'm sending you home, for I just can't go on
Stealin' love like a thief in the night
