Back To The Night - Joan Armatrading

Leaves burnt by the sun

And there’s no wind blowing

See the motor cars

With a smiling face at the wheel

I’m watching the little girls

With their young men at their heels

It’s a sunny day

But get me back to the night

'Cause I love that life

Back to the night

Like a skinny burlesque queen

I love a neon

Skyline

Sweet smiling rose

The night life perfume

See the romeos

Dancing under the moon light

I said the night

Night was made for romance

You keep your sunny day

Just get me back to the night

'Cause I love that life

Back to the night

Like those skinny burlesque queens

I love a neon

Love a neon

Skyline

Got the card sharks hustling

At the break of the moon

Gay night walkers

Old blues buskers

All night long there’s just so much to do

Just get me back to the night

Oh I love that life

Back to the night

Like a skinny burlesque queen

I love a neon

Love a neon

Love that neon skyline

Just get me back to the night

Back to the night

I love that life

Back to the night

Like a skinny burlesque queen

I love a neon

Love a neon

Love that neon skyline

Back to the night

Back to the night

Back to the night

Back to the night

Back to the night

Back to the night

Just get me back to the night

Back to the night

Back to the night

Back to the night

I love that life

I love that life

I love that life

Back to the night

Back to the night

Back to the night

Back to the night

Love that life

Love that life

Just get me back to the night

Back to the night

Back to the night
