ORIGINAL LYRICS
Whenever dark has fallen, you know the
spirit of the party
Starts to come alive, until the day is dawning
You can throw out all your blues, and hit the city
lights
'Cause there's music in the air, and lots
of lovin' everywhere
So gimme the night, gimme the night
You need the evening action, a place to
dine, a glass of wine
A little late romance, it's a chain reaction
You'll see the people of the world, coming out to
dance
'Cause there's music in the air, and lots
of lovin' everywhere
So gimme the night, gimme the night
So come on out tonight, and we'll lead the
others
On a ride through paradise, and if you feel all right
Then we can be lovers,
'Cause I see that starlight
Look in your eyes, don't you know we can fly
Just gimme the night, gimme the night
'Cause there's music in the air, and lots
of lovin' everywhere
So gimme the night, Gimme the night
So come on out tonight, and we'll lead the
others
On a ride through paradise, and if you feel all right
Then we can be lovers
'Cause
I see that starlight, look in your eyes
Don't you know we can fly, and if we stay together
We'll feel the rhythm of the evening
Taking
us up high, never mind the weather
We'll be dancing in the street, until the morning
light
'Cause there's music in the air, and lots
of lovin' everywhere
So gimme the night
Gimme the night, gimme the night
Gimme the night, gimme the night
Gimme the night, gimme the night
So, gimme the night
'Cause
there's music in the air, and lots of lovin' everywhere
So gimme the night
Gimme the night, gimme the night
Gimme the night, gimme the night
Gimme the night, gimme the night
So, gimme the night
'Cause
there's music in the air, and lots of lovin' everywhere
So gimme the night
Gimme the night, gimme the night
Gimme the night, gimme the night
Gimme the night, gimme the night
So, gimme the night.
