BRING ON THE NIGHT

Outtake version 2

I walk down the street checkin' for romance
Stumblin' in some stupid half trance
Walkin' down town ???
Disco dancers ah ah ah ah

I look for connection in some new eyes
But for protection they're tranquilized
Forbidding close inspection of who's tellin' who
Forbidding close inspection of who's tellin' who lies

Bring on the night, oh darlin', bring on the night
Oh baby, bring on the night

Baby I ???
??? living on the edge
???
???

???
Baby ???
Little girl ???
Little girl ???

Bring on the night, oh won't somebody bring on the night
Bring on the night

Na na na na na
Na na na na na
Na na na na na
Na na na na na
Well if I'm right

I look for connection in some new eyes
But for protection they're tranquilized
Forbidding close inspection of who's tellin' who
Forbidding close inspection of who's tellin' who
Baby you been telling me lies

Bring on the night, oh yeah darlin', bring on the night
Oh now baby, bring on the night, oh now darlin' bring on the night
Come home darlin', bring on the night
Oh now darlin' bring on the night
