It's another night out on the avenue

Looking for something, something that you knew

And you're wondering where she is

Now there's now there's no more rendezvous



*You're left out here on this cold stark street

With the sound of lovers as they tango and meet

Their sweet surrender with a promise and a kiss

Where's that girl, the one you miss



Those ooh la la la girls in their skirts they go rushing by

They look around and give you that come on

With their dreamy dreamy eyes

Then you never stop to count your mistakes

That one blind moment with no give and take

Is lost in every stranger's face you see

If there's a loser that loser's me



** Please put a little love back into my life

Won't you please put a little love back into my life



Every night's another night you keep looking back

Trying to fill the spaces Hours and the minutes and the missing gaps



* Repeat



** Repeat



[INSTRUMENTAL]



Every shadow's like a ghost that comes and haunts you

Angel of the night plays her tricks today it's true

With every step, every step you see her slip away

Not just today



It's another night out on the avenue

Looking for something, something that you knew

* Repeat



** Repeat and fade
