she was hanging on tight to a microphone
in a karaoke bar on the south side of the town
I wasn’t in the mood to sing a song
though I’d sometimes hum along
she was cute and I was happy just to watch her.
outside the storm is blowing wild
while we were singing “Are you Lonesome Tonight”
for a sunday night it was pretty wild
most would call in sick in the morning
some Spanish girls were on the tiles
long hair and flashing eyes
and the Irish boys were hovering
when you get back to Cadiz
you can tell them how it is
CHORUS
Headlong into the night I know we’re gonna make it
Headlong into our lives it’s all there for the taking
With wild hearts and diamond souls
We’ll keep on going with the flow………till light
the taxis cabs are going to have to wait
‘cos we‘re not going home till dawn
the rain shines on the street and
sprinkles diamonds in her hair
she’s the centre of the universe right now
we stop for fish & chips
and I can taste the salt right on her lips
CHORUS
Headlong into the night I know we’re gonna make it
Headlong into our lives it’s all there for the taking
With wild hearts and diamond souls
We’ll keep on going with the flow………till light…..till light
