Dark Night lyrics

Hot air hangs like a dead man,
From a wide oak tree,
People sitting on porches,
Thinking how things used to be,
Dark Night, it`s a dark night,
Dark Night, it`s a dark night.

The neighbourhood was changing,
Strangers movin` in,
A new boy fell for a local girl,
When she made eyes with him,
She was young and pretty,
No stranger to other men,
But who knows we`re being locked at night,
The old lines drawn again,
I thought these things didn`t happen anymore,
I thought all that blood had been shed long ago,
Dark Night, it`s a dark night.

He took a two-piece outfit,
He pledged his love to her,
They thought it was their secret,
But someone knew where they were,
I hear Hell was so close,
He asked about her dreams,
When a bullet from a passing car,
Made the young girl scream,

I thought these things didn`t happen anymore,
I thought all that blood had been shed long ago,
Dark Night, it`s a dark night.
Dark Night, it`s a dark night.
