Enough Of The Night Lyrics - Jackson Browne

You used to stand on the tables 

You used to shoot out the lights 

You used to stop trucks on I-19 

In your blue leopard tights 

You got the vote of your high school 

Most likely to exceed 

But not likely to ever get enough 

Enough of what you need 

Enough of the night 

Enough of the night 

And now the carnival lights come down 

The sounds of laughter receed 

You sit and drink in this cardboard town 

The fast lane gone to seed 

You used to laugh about the damage done 

But there was no way to know 

How little distance you had actually come 

And how far you'd have to go

It's tough to do baby 

It's tough to make it 

When the heart is naked 

It's tough for you baby 

It's tough for me too 

Without all this pain to see through 

Now 

I want to see you smile 

You know how 

It's just been awhile 

Don't allow 

Another night to close on your empty cup 

You've had enough of those 

Enough of the night 

Enough of the night 

Photos 

You used to count on the miracles 

The old shot in the dark 

You used to wait for the setting sun 

To help you hit your mark 

You used to stand on the tables 

You used to shoot out the lights 

You dressed right out of the fables 

Like the Arabian Nights 

But you were never the princess 

More like the queen of the thieves 

And my heart was never more than one of the many 

A queen receives 

It's tough to do baby 

It's tough to make it 

When the heart is naked 

It's tough for you baby it's tough for me too 

Without this disdain to see through 

Now 

I want to see you smile 

You know how 

It's just been awhile 

Don't allow 

Another heart to pass beyond your reach 

Say "Baby not so fast" 

You've had enough of the night 

To fill the street with tears 

You've had enough of those empty hours 

To last a thousand years 

Enough of the night 

Enough of the tears
