Lady of the night
{Verse One}
I climbed the highest mountain, and then I turned myself around
When I placed my two feet on the ground, I heard a loud, mysterious sound
As I followed the path that leads me down, I came across a girl in a nightgown
She said, “Come with me, I’ve gotta show you what I found.” So, I followed her eastbound
The more we walked, the more we talked. Until my head began to pound
She said, “We’re almost there, please be prepared.” I looked at her and frowned
Not even ten minutes later, she told me a man had paid her. Paid her, and took her here… Out of town
I looked out into the water, where she said the man had brought her. Brought her here to drown
{Chorus One}
She was a ghost
She was the lady of the night
She was close
(She ran from the man of fright)
She escaped, almost
She put up a fight and so I raise my glass, I toast
For she was a ghost
She was the lady of the night
She was close
(She ran from the man of fright)
She escaped, almost
She put up a fight and so I raise my glass, I toast
{Verse Two}
I ran down the highest mountain. And yes, I ran faster than a hound
When I placed my two feet on the ground… I was wired, I was wound
As I fled to my truck which was painted brown, I came across the girl in a nightgown
She said, “Show the police what I have found.” So, I said I’ll show them the profound
The more she stalked, the more we talked. Until the sun rose from the hill’s crown
She said, “Before you go, please take control.” I looked at her and bowed
Not even ten minutes later, I drove away like an investigator. An investigator heading into town
I told the police a man had caught her, and had brought her to the water. Brought her to the water to drown
{Chorus Two}
She was a ghost
She was the lady of the night
She was close
(She ran from the man of fright)
She escaped, almost
She put up a fight and so I raise my glass, I toast
For she was a ghost
She was the lady of the night
She was close
(She ran from the man of fright)
She escaped, almost
She put up a fight and so I raise my glass, I toast
