  • One of these nights
  • One of these crazy old nights
  • We're gonna find out
  • Pretty mama
  • What turns on your lights
  • The full moon is calling
  • The fever is high
  • And the wicked wind whispers
  • And moans
  • You got your demons
  • You got desires
  • Well, I got a few of my own
  • Oo, someone to be kind to in
  • Between the dark and the light
  • Oo, coming right behind you
  • Swear I'm gonna find you
  • One of these nights
  • One of these dreams
  • One of these lost and lonely dreams
  • We're gonna find one
  • One that really screams
  • I've been searching for the daughter
  • Of the devil himself
  • I've been searching for an angel in white
  • I've been waiting for a woman who's a little
  • Of both
  • And I can feel her but she's nowhere
  • In sight
  • Oo, loneliness will blind you
  • In between the wrong and the right
  • Oo, coming right behind you
  • Swear I'm gonna find you
  • One of these nights
  • One of these nights
  • In between the dark and the light
  • Coming right behind you
  • Swear I'm gonna find you
  • Get 'ya baby one of these nights
  • One of these nights
  • One of these nights
  • I can feel it
  • I can feel it
  • One of these nights
  • Coming right behind you
  • Swear I'm gonna find you now
  • One of these nights..[etc.]
 
  • She's one of a kind
  • Sometimes hard to find
  • Like a rainbow
  • Well, she's lost all her glory
  • And could tell you some stories
  • That we all should know
  • And there's too many hands
  • Being laid on her
  • Too many eyes will never see
  • That it's dragging her down
  • But you won't hear a sound as
  • She turns 'round
  • Her beauty all aflight
  • It always seems to turn the tide
  • At midnight
  • And for her there is no rest
  • We are doing what is best
  • For our future
  • One of these days she may not
  • Be so good to you
  • One of these days she might
  • Shake you to the ground
  • But her fire is still
  • Burning
  • And her heart is still yearning
  • To be found
 
  • Springtime, and the acacias are blooming
  • Southern California will see one more day
  • Dreamland, and bus'ness is booming,
  • The birds are a singing as I drift away
  • She looks another year older,
  • From too many lovers who used her and ran
  • But some nights, oh, she looks like an angel
  • And she's always willing to hold you again
  • So give her this dance,
  • She can't be forsaken
  • Learn how to love her with all of her faults
  • She gave more than she's taken,
  • And I'll go down doing the Hollywood Waltz
  • Springtime and the lady is grieving
  • The lovers just stand there with nothing to say
  • They got what they wanted,
  • They're packing and leaving
  • To look for another to love the same way
  • So give her this dance,
  • She can't be forsaken
  • Learn how to love her
  • With all of her faults
  • She gave more than she's taken
  • And I'll go down doing the Hollywood Waltz
  • The Hollywood Waltz

  • City girls just seem to find out early
  • How to open doors with just a smile
  • A rich old man
  • And she won't have to worry
  • She'll dress up all in lace and go in style
  • Late at night a big old house gets lonely
  • I guess ev'ry form of refuge has its price
  • And it breaks her heart to think her love is
  • Only given to a man with hands as cold as ice
  • So she tells him she must go out for the evening
  • To comfort an old friend who's feelin' down
  • But he knows where she's goin' as she's leavin'
  • She is headed for the cheatin' side of town
  • You can't hide your lyin' eyes
  • And your smile is a thin disguise
  • I thought by now you'd realize
  • There ain't no way to hide your lyin eyes
  • On the other side of town a boy is waiting
  • with fiery eyes and dreams no one could steal
  • She drives on through the nice anticipating
  • 'Cause he makes her feel the way she used to feel
  • She rushes to his arms,
  • They fall together
  • She whispers that it's only for awhile
  • She swears that soon she'll be comin' back forever
  • She pulls away and leaves him with a smile
  • You can't hide your lyin' eyes
  • And your smile is a thin disguise
  • I thought by now you'd realize
  • There ain't no way to hide you lyin' eyes
  • She gets up and pours herself a strong one
  • And stares out at the stars up in the sky
  • Another night, it's gonna be a long one
  • She draws the shade and hangs her head to cry
  • She wonders how it ever got this crazy
  • She thinks about a boy she knew in school
  • Did she get tired or did she just get lazy?
  • She's so far gone she feels just like a fool
  • My, oh my, you sure know how to arrange things
  • You set it up so well, so carefully
  • Ain't it funny how your new life didn't change things
  • You're still the same old girl you used to be
  • You can't hide your lyin eyes
  • And your smile is a thin disguise
  • I thought by now you'd realize
  • There ain't no way to hide your lyin' eyes
  • There ain't no way to hide your lyin' eyes
  • Honey, you can't hide your lyin' eyes
 
  • All alone at the end of the of the evening
  • And the bright lights have faded to blue
  • I was thinking 'bout a woman who might have
  • Loved me and I never knew
  • You know I've always been a dreamer
  • (spent my life running 'round)
  • And it's so hard to change
  • (Can't seem to settle down)
  • But the dreams I've seen lately
  • Keep on turning out and burning out
  • And turning out the same
  • So put me on a highway
  • And show me a sign
  • And take it to the limit one more time
  • You can spend all your time making money
  • You can spend all your love making time
  • If it all fell to pieces tomorrow
  • Would you still be mine?
  • And when you're looking for your freedom
  • (Nobody seems to care)
  • And you can't find the door
  • (Can't find it anywhere)
  • When there's nothing to believe in
  • Still you're coming back, you're running back
  • You're coming back for more
  • So put me on a highway
  • And show me a sign
  • And take it to the limit one more time
  • Take it to the limit
  • Take it to the limit
  • Take it to the limit one more time

  • Visions, that you stir in my soul
  • Visions, that will never grow old
  • Sweet baby, I had some visions of you
  • If I can't have it all, just a taste will do
  • Go ahead and live all your fantasies
  • (Don't you ever think about the other side?)
  • Helps you get from where you are
  • To where you want to be
  • (You and me oughta be taking a ride)
  • You do the best you can
  • And you make your mistakes
  • (If you don't like it, you can say that you tried)
  • 'Cause all I have to give is whatever it takes
  • Play on, El Chingadero, play on
  • Play on, El Chingadero
  • Dance, angel, dance 'til you wear out your blues
  • (Only thing that's gonna save you now)
  • Take another chance, you got nothing to lose
  • (The boy didn't love you anyhow)
  • Girl, you drive me wild when you do what you do
  • (Something makes me want to take you down)
  • If I can't have it all, just a taste will do
  • Just a taste of you
 
  • Same dances in the same old shoes
  • Some habits that you just can't lose
  • There's no telling what a man might lose,
  • After the thrill is gone
  • The flame rises but it soon descends
  • Empty pages and a frozen pen
  • You're not quite lovers and you're not quite friends
  • After the thrill is gone, oh,
  • After the thrill is gone
  • What can you do when your dreams come true
  • And it's not quite like you planned?
  • What have you done to be losing the one
  • You held it so tight in your hand well
  • Time passes and you must move on,
  • Half the distance takes you twice as long
  • So you keep on singing for the sake of the song
  • After the thrill is gone
  • After the thrill is gone
  • You're afraid you might fall out of fashion
  • And you're feeling cold and small
  • Any kind of love without passion
  • That ain't no kind of lovin' at all, well
  • Same dances in the same old shoes
  • You get too careful with the steps you choose
  • you don't care about winning but you don't want to lose
  • After the thrill is gone
  • After the thrill is gone
  • After the thrill is gone, oh
  • After the thrill is gone
 
  • I wish you peace when the cold winds blow
  • Warmed by the fire's glow
  • I wish you comfort in the, the lonely time
  • And arms to hold you when you ache inside
  • I wish you hope when things are going bad
  • Kind words when times are sad
  • I wish you shelter from the, the raging wind
  • Cooling waters at the fever's end
  • I wish you peace when times are hard
  • The light to guide you through the dark
  • And when storms are high and your, your dreams are low
  • I wish you the strength to let love grow on,
  • I wish you the strength to let love flow,
  • I wish you peace when times are hard
  • A light to guide you through the dark
  • And when storms are high and your, you dreams are low
  • I wish you the strength to let let grown on,
  • I wish you the strength to let love flow,
  • I wish you the strength to let love glow on
  • I wish you the strength to let love go on.
