Night and the city
Whoa oh
Night and the city
Whoa oh
Like a tango on a dance floor of yesteryear
Full of promises and mystery
An exotic dancer in a golden cage
That's what you honour me
So let's dance like it's our last dance, baby
For we don't know when the lady will sing
Oh, I'm in love with the night and the city
And you're in love with everything
So let's dance like it's our last dance, baby
For we don't know what tomorrow will bring
Are you ready now for the night and the city
The night and the city and you
Are you ready now for the night and the city
The night and the city and you
Like a wink and a smile from Mata Hari
That only I am meant to see
Like the silver thread in an Indian story
That's what you honour me
You're a wild night out and also, oh
Like a liaison at the cafe de Paris
Run it jazz all the palladium has
That's what you honour me
So let's dance like it's our last dance, baby
For we don't know when the lady will sing
Oh, I'm in love with the night and the city
And you're in love with everything
So let's dance like it's our last dance, baby
For we don't know what tomorrow will bring
Are you ready now for the night and the city
The night and the city and you
Are you ready now for the night and the city
The night and the city and you
At 5 a.m. when the city is waking
And I'm wondering how to fill my day
I don't really know which way I'm going
But I know I'm going all the way
Oh, I'm in love with the night and the city
And you're in love with everything
So let's dance like it's our last dance, baby
For we don't know what tomorrow will bring
Are you ready now for the night and the city
The night and the city and you
Are you ready now for the night and the city
You ready now for the night and the city and you
