I heard you were here
then you disappeared
Last night.
When they killed the lights
Words we didn't say,
your eyes that took us
down two more,
and we were ready for
You came up behind me,
grabbed my wrists in the dark
and said 'don't look at what you can't see.'
Now all night, all night.
I've been looking for you all night.
All night. All night.
I've been looking for you all night.
Doesn't matter what I tell myself.
The flame is small,
but it burns it all.
Sleepless questions
and some sly suggestions.
I could fly
if I could only fall.
I've been wanting to touch you
since we met.
You don't give a girl
a chance to forget.
And all night. All night.
I've been looking for you all night.
All night. All night.
I've been looking for you all night.
No straight lines
when love rewinds
out in the night.
Well you took the light.
You're all around
but I haven't found you.
You're coming in
right through my skin.
Oh comrade,
what do you need?
Where will all this trouble lead?
All night. All night.
I've been looking for you all night.
All night. All night.
I've been looking for you all night.

-- Sam Phillips, All Night
