Gerry Rafferty Lyrics

"On A Night Like This" lyrics


On a night like this, I need your sweet kissYeah it's only you that can heal me girlTill there's no more rain, and there's no more painOh yeah darlin' you take it all all away.
I've been out walkin' on those city streetsI've been so restless for so longIn those dark places where they keep the beatYou're missing nothing, it's the same old song.
When the beat goes on, when the music's playingIt's raining in my heart yeah, and the room keeps on swayingI'm sitting in this crowd, oh yeah, but you're the one I missI know how much I need you girl, on a night like this.
On a night like this, I just can't resistAll the sweet love, you want to give to me girlWhen I'm all at sea, you can rescue meYeah it's only you, that can turn this old heart around.
It's been so long since I went steppin' outI went looking for something newThen I remember what it's all aboutAnd I bring it all home to you.
When the beat goes on, when the music's playingIt's raining in my heart yeah, and the room keeps on swayingI'm sitting in this crowd, oh yeah, but you're the one I missI know how much I need you girl, on a night like this.
When the beat goes on, when the music's playingIt's raining in my heart yeah, and the room keeps on swayingI'm sitting in this crowd, oh yeah, but you're the one I missI know how much I need you girl, on a night like this.
