Elton John - I Swear I Heard The Night Talking(1990)

[00:13.16] In the nicotine glare of a cold naked light
[00:19.10] I drag my body from the covers and down forty flights
[00:25.43] I run out the front door into the center of the street
[00:31.44] I scream out your name as the steam just swells around my feet
[00:37.66] I hear you after midnight from the inner city
[00:43.10] As every little Cinderella turns to drop dead pretty
[00:50.19] We were built out of the darkness into this West Side Story
[00:56.51] We came together in the shadows
[00:58.80] But the moon just steals our glory
[01:02.46] Well, this is my battleground, baby
[01:05.84] This is my plaything
[01:08.90] The only thing I've ever known
[01:11.10] Outside of a wedding ring
[01:14.14] And I swear I heard the night talking
[01:20.01] Cursing me for being a little more than hopeless
[01:27.07] Telling me we're running lonely, loose and broken
[01:32.30] Stronger now on passion but haven't we really spoken
[01:39.08] And all we ever do is listen to the night talking
[01:46.88]
[01:58.59] On the burden of insanity, we can't find the cause
[02:04.84] On a flatbed truck, well, the home girl she paints her claws
[02:10.91] There's a coward who gets his courage undercover of the dark
[02:16.31] And it's a strange breed of devil
[02:18.19] Freeze at night to go walking in the park
[02:23.12] Well, this is my battleground, baby
[02:26.52] This is my plaything
[02:29.30] The only thing I've ever known
[02:32.63] Outside of a wedding ring
[02:34.85] And I swear I heard the night talking
[02:40.61] Cursing me for being a little more than hopeless
[02:47.72] Telling me we're running lonely, loose and broken
[02:52.93] Stronger now on passion but haven't we really spoken
[02:59.85] And all we ever do is listen to the night talking
[03:07.24]
[03:19.22] This is my battleground, baby
[03:22.36] This is my plaything
[03:25.41] The only thing I've ever known
[03:27.10] Outside of a wedding ring
[03:30.75] And I swear I heard the night talking
[03:36.59] Cursing me for being a little more than hopelesss
[03:43.50] Telling me we're running lonely, loose and broken
[03:49.06] Stronger now on passion but haven't we really spoken
[03:55.64] And all we ever do, oh yeah, is listen to the night talking
[04:05.44] Oh yeah (oh yeah)
[04:12.65] And I swear I heard the night talking
[04:17.55] Oh yeah (oh yeah)
[04:23.59] I swear, I swear, I swear I heard the night talking
[04:27.94]
