Lyrics
WALKIN' THE LONELY NIGHT
(WORDS & MUSIC / ERNIE MOTTOLA)
Where do you come from my lady?
Where have you been all your life?
Nothing's gonna change you sweet lady
Would you like to be my wife?
Searchin' to find you
Lurking behind you
Walkin' the lonely night
Ah / Ah / Ah / Ah
Go right ahead and say it
I'll give you my soul dear lady
Sing me your tune then play it
What is your goal my lady?
Searchin' to find me?
Don't look behind me
Walkin' the lonely night
Ah / Ah / Ah / Ah
I don't know why I go on this way
It's somethin' I plan every day
Why can't we go on as two?
It's a pity I'm a myst'ry to you
So you don't know me, but maybe
Someday you'd like to marry
Give me your best, ooo lady
Too much for me to carry
Searchin' to find us
Look on behind us
We're walkin' the lonely night
