2. I love the night - Blue Oyster Cult
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ognBcHjlcJo

That night her kiss told me it was over
I walked out late into the dark
The misty gloom seems to soak up my sorrow
The further I went on I felt a spreading calm
Then suddenly my eyes were bathed in a light
And the lovely lady in white was by my side
She said "Like me I see you're walking alone
Won't you please stay?" I couldn't look away

She said I love the night
The day is OK and the sun can be fun
But I live to see those rays slip away
I love the night
There's so much I can show and give to you
If you will welcome me tonight
If only you had been there my dear
We could have shared this together

No mortal was meant to see such wonder
One look in the mirror told me so
Come darkness I'll see her again
Yes I'm gonna go 'cause now I know

She said I love the night
The day is OK and the sun can be fun
But I live to see those rays slip away
I love the night
There's so much that I can show and give to you
If you will welcome me tonight
If only you had been there my dear
We could have shared this together

5. Death Valley Nights - BOC
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n1T9G_d8RJ4


Bleached by the sun
And scorched by the moon
If I make it til tomorrow noon Im leaving

tween the horror of space
And the terror of time
My heart in crystal down the line Im screaming

What I need is a kiss from you babe
Before its hangover time
What I need is some love from you babe
Before this stampede arrives

Desolate landscape
Storybook bliss
My darling let me tell you this - its crazy

Hell of a memory
Is a heaven of pain
Snow is cold but so is rain please save me

What I need is a kiss from you babe
Before its hangover time
What I need is some love from you babe
Before this stampede arrives

Oh babe.......................what I need kiss from you babe
Before its hangover time.....what I need love from you babe
Before this stampede arrives

Babe..........................what I need death valley nights
Babe babe...................what I need death valley nights
Babe..........................what I need
I need you....................death valley nights
Before I lose my mind

I need you....................what I need death valley nights
What I need
To run away...................death valley nights
Get away......................what I need
Outer space...................death valley nights
Just run away.................what I need
I need you....................death valley nights

Strangers in the Night Lyrics

Strangers in the night exchanging glances
Wond'ring in the night
What were the chances we'd be sharing love
Before the night was through.

Something in your eyes was so inviting,
Something in your smile was so exciting,
Something in my heart,
Told me I must have you.

Strangers in the night, two lonely people
We were strangers in the night
Up to the moment
When we said our first hello.
Little did we know
Love was just a glance away,
A warm embracing dance away and -

Ever since that night we've been together.
Lovers at first sight, in love forever.
It turned out so right,
For strangers in the night.

Love was just a glance away,
A warm embracing dance away -

Ever since that night we've been together.
Lovers at first sight, in love forever.
It turned out so right,
For strangers in the night.

Do dody doby do
do doo de la
da da da da ya

Larry Clinton - Deep Purple Lyrics

When the deep purple falls over sleepy garden walls
And the stars begin to flicker in the sky
Through the mist of a memory you wander back to me
Breathing my name with a sigh
In the still of the night once again I hold you tight
Though you're gone, your love lives on when moonlight beams
And as long as my heart will beat, lover we'll always meet
Here in my deep purple dreams
Here in my deep purple dreams

8. "Night Life" - Willie Nelson
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jD9WuHtq7U8

When the evenin' sun goes down
You will find me hangin' 'round
Oh, the night life, it ain't no good life
But it's my life
Many people just like me
Dreamin' of old used-to-be's
Oh, the night life, it ain't no good life
Ah, but it's my life
Listen to the blues that they're playin'
Listen what the blues are sayin'
Life is just another scene
In this old world of broken dreams
Oh, the night life, it ain't no good life
But it's my life
Oh, the night life ain't no good life
Oh, but it's my life
Yeah, it's my life

9. "Tonight's The Night" - Neil Young
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wOwPapbMGwo&feature=related

Tonight's the night,
tonight's the night
Tonight's the night,
tonight's the night
Tonight's the night,
tonight's the night
Tonight's the night,
tonight's the night.

Bruce Berry was a working man
He used to load that Econoline van.
A sparkle was in his eye
But his life was in his hands.

Well, late at night
when the people were gone
He used to pick up my guitar
And sing a song in a shaky voice
That was real as the day was long.

Tonight's the night, yes it is,
tonight's the night
Tonight's the night, yes it is,
tonight's the night.

Early in the mornin'
at the break of day
He used to sleep
until the afternoon.
If you never heard him sing
I guess you won't too soon.

'Cause people let me tell you
It sent a chill
up and down my spine
When I picked up the telephone
And heard that he'd died
out on the mainline.

Tonight's the night,
tonight's the night
Tonight's the night,
tonight's the night.

Bruce Berry was a working man
He used to load that Econoline van.
Well, early in the morning
at just about the break of day
He used to sleep
until the afternoon.

Tonight's the night, yes it is,
tonight's the night
Tonight's the night,
tonight's the night
Tonight's the night,
tonight's the night
Tonight's the night,
tonight's the night.

19. Here comes the Night -- Them
Edited on Mon Aug-24-09 05:36 PM by retread
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OO7A_NXbYUw

Whoa, here it comes
Here comes the night
Here comes the night
Whoa-whoa-whoa-yeah

I could see right out my window
Walkin' down the street, my girl
With another guy

His arm around her
Like it used to be with me
Whoa, it makes me want to die-i

Yeah-yeah-yeah
Well, here it comes
Here comes the night
Here comes the night
Whoa-whoa-whoa-whoa-yeah

There they go
It's funny how they look so good together
Wonder what is wrong with me?
Why can't I, accept the fact she's chosen him
And simply let them be?
Whoa-whoa-whoa

Well, here it comes
Here comes the night
Here comes the night
Whoa-whoa-whoa-yeah

She's with him He's turning down the lights
And now he's holding her
The way I used to do

I could see, her closing her eyes
And tellin' him lies
Exactly like she told me, too
Yeah-yeah-yeah

Well, here it comes
Here comes the night
The long, the long and lonely night Night, night, night, night, night, night
FADES-
Whoa, here comes the night
The long, the long, the long and lonely night

26. Ned of the Hill
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dpVobgdiyVU

The vocalist gets some of the lyrics wrong. Here are the lyrics that are commonly used:

~~

Dark is the evening and silent the hour

Oh, who is that minstrel by yon shady tower

Whose harp is so tenderly touching with skill

Oh, who could it be but young Ned of the Hill

And he sings, "Lady love, will you come with me now

Come and live out with me under the bough

I'll pillow your head where the light fairies tread

If you will but wed with young Ned of the Hill"



Young Ned of the Hill has no castle, no hall

No bowmen, no spearmen to come at his call

But one *little archer of exquisite skill (*Cupid)

Has loosed a bright shaft (at Eileen) for (as a favor to) young Ned of the Hill

It is hard to escape from this young lady's bower

For high is the castle and guarded the tower

But love finds a way when the heart has a will

And Eileen is gone with young Ned of the Hill
