Love In The Night by Rick James Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I woke up this morning
The sign of loneliness had left my face
In its place, peaceful contentment
Seemed to caress me, as I watched you sleep
So beautiful, you made me weep
[Pre-Chorus]
Just yesterday, we were strangers, babe
Meeting each other in nighttime charades
You with a glance, I with romance
And together, we took a chance, baby, yeah
[Chorus]
We made love in the night
We made love in the night
Love in the night
If you want me say, 'Yeah, yeah'
If you want me say, 'Yeah, yeah'
[Verse 2]
Anger and madness
That's how I felt before I met you, dear
In my heart there was fear
Oh, don't get me wrong now
There are many, many girls I have let use my bed
Take my heart and my head
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, what's the use, girl? You're fast asleep
You can't hear me or see me, so what does it mean?
Is there a trace of a tear on your face
Could it truly be?
You've been listenin' to me, yeah, baby
[Chorus]
Let's make love in the night
Love in the nighttime is the right time for you, baby
Love in the night
If you want me say, 'Yeah, yeah'
If you want me say, 'Yeah, yeah'
Yeah, baby
Love in the night
Baby, baby, let's make love in the night
If it's good to you, mama, keep on talkin', say
Love in the nighttime is the right time for makin'
Love in the night, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby
Love in the night, keep on talkin', baby, keep on talkin'
Love in the night, if it's good to you, baby
[Bridge]
(Love) Hear me talkin' to you, people
(Love) Makin' love is gonna be so fine, yeah
Sing!
Everybody make love
Everybody, every single body
Let's make love, yeah, yeah
(Let's make love)
People sing it, yeah yeah
(Let's make love)
When you're lonely, baby
(Let's make love)
Sing! Makin' love is better than war
(Let's make love)
Let's make love
[Outro]
Make love
Every single body in the whole wide world needs a little love
(Ooh...ooh...)
Good night, people
Stone City Band, good night
Colored Girls, Jackie & Lisa, good night
Danny and the horn players and people in the world
Make love
Good night
I woke up this morning
The sign of loneliness had left my face
In its place, peaceful contentment
Seemed to caress me, as I watched you sleep
So beautiful, you made me weep
[Pre-Chorus]
Just yesterday, we were strangers, babe
Meeting each other in nighttime charades
You with a glance, I with romance
And together, we took a chance, baby, yeah
[Chorus]
We made love in the night
We made love in the night
Love in the night
If you want me say, 'Yeah, yeah'
If you want me say, 'Yeah, yeah'
