Thief In the Night

Percy Sledge

With a silent step
It creeps up on you
Like a mist or fog
You can't see through

It can make you worry
Till you almost die
Hurt you so
Makes you wanna cry
So be careful be careful
Cause love gets a hold on you
Like a thief in the night

Stealin stealin stealin
Stealin stealin stealin

It can make you worry
Till you almost die
Hurt you so
Makes you wanna cry
So be careful be careful
Cause love gets a hold on you
Like a thief in the night

I had a girl who was mean to me
All I could do
Was stand around helplessly
Found it take for eternity
Trying to find something
That I couldn't see

So be careful be careful
Cause love gets a hold on you
Like a thief in the night

Stealin stealin stealin
Stealin stealin stealin

It can make you worry
Till you almost die
Hurt you so
Makes you wanna cry
So be careful be careful
Cause love gets a hold on you
Like a thief in the night

Like a thief in the night
Like a thief in the night...
