lyrics

Pause for thought
I think I've had too much
When I can focus
I'll sort the wheat from the chaff
I saw her lap the room
Looking for her next fix
So I walked over to her
And told her where to get her kicks
Her eyes are black as a raven
I'm addicted to her stare

Now I'm hearing things go bump in the night
It must be the company I'm keeping
I come alive when I turn out the lights
Each weekend is history repeating

Shoot the breeze
Take your best shot at me
We moved all night
To 'Rhythm was a Dancer'
We ordered several shots
That we drank from plastic cups
Couldn't navigate the people
When you said you'd had enough
We could get the night bus
Or wait for the first train home
Who says I can't make your heart my home

Now I'm hearing things go bump in the night
It must be the company I'm keeping
I come alive when I turn out the lights
Each weekend is history repeating

I'm hearing things go bump in the night
It must be the company I'm keeping
I come alive when I turn out the lights
Each weekend is history repeating
