Oh mommy mommy Oh mommy mommy, yeah I stood too near the gaslight and I cried The dirty city mist had seeped too deep inside It took me on some kind of heady ride It's only Charlie Parker died And I don't want, I don't want And I don't want the night to end
Oh daddy daddy Oh daddy daddy, yeah Waiting half my life on platforms underground The other half I wasted as a desperate clown My problem now is that you're not around In dark delicious dreams of you I'll drown And I, I don't want I don't want the night to end
Oh baby baby Oh baby baby baby baby baby, yeah Wrapped around your soul is where I wanna be But in the night blue music's all I seem to see The drunks out in the rain down on one knee And what, and what is to become of you and me And I don't want I don't want the night to end I don't want, I don't want I don't want the night to end I don't want the night to end I don't want the night to end
