Two a.m. on a downtown street 
there on a corner two strangers meet, in the night 
and then until the daybreak 
they're gonna love and before and light, 
a heart may break, there in the night 
Look in the alleys along the roads 
it's there the losers stand, 
there in the ring they bide their time 
hustling what they can 
they beg just to get 
that bottle in their hand 
Chorus: 
There in the night 
somewhere in the night 
oh how they do what they do 
just to get through 
there in the night ... in the night 
Then on the street in the heart of town 
a lady in black she turns around, in the night, yeah 
she stares at the man in the cadillac 
he drives by but he'll be back ... for the night 
there in the night 
See the guy along the road 
who can he be? 
wait awhile he'll turn around 
see the man is me 
'cause when i sing my dream ... 
my dreams will set me free 
Chorus 
Bridge: 
When the sun goes down 
and the light grows dim 
slowly move in for the kill 
if you would come back again 
it would take away this pain 
but i don't know if you ever will 
Love in the night 
would feel so right 
so love me tonight .. in the night 
Chorus
