Lady of the Night
Standing on the corner
Getting soaked by all the rain
The world that waits before her
Is the same old twisted game
It pushed her to her limits
And then it broke her pride
The failures and near-misses
Locked the gates to paradise
Yet another headlight
Yet another man
She's on another deadline
For a little cash in hand
She wonders how she came to
Fall as low as this
Life has turned the tables
Fed her poison from its lips
She feels so lost
Just count the cash, not the soul that she has lost
She's the lady of the night
Once there was a young girl
Who dreamt a perfect life
Is it out there somewhere?
'Cos it sure ain't here tonight
Living in the moment
There's no more "making plans"
It's ecstasy and torment
Wrapped up in a half-hour stand
She feels so lost
Just count the cash, not the soul that she has lost
All the times she's been lost
Caught up in this vicious cycle
(The soul that she has lost)
Count the cash, don't count the cost
That's the lady of the night
She's the lady of the night
(She feels so lost)
All the times she's been lost
Caught up in this vicious cycle
She's the lady of the night
And that's how she survives
Getting soaked by all the rain
The world that waits before her
Is the same old twisted game
It pushed her to her limits
And then it broke her pride
The failures and near-misses
Locked the gates to paradise
Yet another headlight
Yet another man
She's on another deadline
For a little cash in hand
She wonders how she came to
Fall as low as this
Life has turned the tables
Fed her poison from its lips
She feels so lost
Just count the cash, not the soul that she has lost
She's the lady of the night
Once there was a young girl
Who dreamt a perfect life
Is it out there somewhere?
'Cos it sure ain't here tonight
Living in the moment
There's no more "making plans"
It's ecstasy and torment
Wrapped up in a half-hour stand
She feels so lost
Just count the cash, not the soul that she has lost
All the times she's been lost
Caught up in this vicious cycle
(The soul that she has lost)
Count the cash, don't count the cost
That's the lady of the night
She's the lady of the night
(She feels so lost)
All the times she's been lost
Caught up in this vicious cycle
She's the lady of the night
And that's how she survives
