Frank Sinatra - A Long Night Lyrics
(A.Wilder, L.McGlohon)[Recorded July 20, 1981, New York]Long night, it's a long night, my friendThe barrooms and the back street's dead endSometimes I thought I saw the sunrise and good times in the airIt was just, it was just another big town with midnight's neon glareLong night, it's a long night, I knowThe bus rides and the "nowhere to go"I've seen what the street corners do to things like love and dreamsSeen what the bottle can do to a man with his hopes and his schemesA long night, what a long night it has beenThe wheelers and the dealers, they winI've tasted the 90-proof gin and chased it away with the bluesI rarely paid debts that I owed but I sure have paid my duesNo daylight, just a long night for me
