Something In The Night by Bruce Springsteen | lyrics[fix or update these lyrics]
Well, I'm driving down Kingsley
Figuring I'll get a drink
I turn the radio way up loud
So I don't have to think
And I take her to the floor
Looking for a moment when the world seems right
And I go tearing into the guts
Of something in the night
And I picked this chick up hitchhiking
She just hung her head out the window and she screamed
Said she was looking for someplace to go
To die or be redeemed
Well you can ride this road 'til dawn
Without another human being in sight
Baby, everybody's gone looking
For something in the night
She said she was born with nothing
Said she was better -- better off that way
As soon as you get something
Somebody comes along and they try to take it away
She wants me to push my old Chevy
'Cause together we could make it clean
Make it fast, we could make an honest stand
And surrender to the justice
Of something in the night
'Cause tonight nothing is forgotten or forgiven
When it's your last time around
And I got stuff runnin' round my head
I can't live with or live down
And on the inside all the big boys and the players
They sit around the tables and mumble about some vague wrong and right
While outside kids like us rumble, babe
Over something in the night
And tonight me and that little girl are going to love each other
'Til we got nothing left to show
We're going to drive my old car
As hard and fast as she will go
For all the ones caught laughing in the face of the devil
Who went when the moment was right
Somewhere we'll surrender to the beauty
Of something in the night
Ooh-oh, there's s
Darkness on the Edge of Town (1978)
I'm riding down Kingsley,
figuring I'll get a drink
Turn the radio up loud,
so I don't have to think,
I take her to the floor,
looking for a moment when the world
seems right,
And I tear into the guts,
of something in the night.
You're born with nothing,
and better off that way,
Soon as you've got something they send
someone to try and take it away,
You can ride this road 'till dawn,
without another human being in sight,
Just kids wasted on
something in the night.
Nothing is forgotten or forgiven,
when it's your last time around,
I got stuff running 'round my head
That I just can't live down
When we found the things we loved,
They were crushed and dying in the dirt.
We tried to pick up the pieces,
And get away without getting hurt,
But they caught us at the state line,
And burned our cars in one last fight,
And left us running burned and blind,
Chasing something in the night.
