Nights In Harlem Lyrics - I Know - Luther Vandross

In the big apple, scars embedded like tattoos 

Ghetto love, protection from what's coming at you 

Keeping our heads up, maintaining self esteem 

And reminiscing on the Harlem Nights scene 

We used to party all night 

We used to hang out all night like it was all right 

Hoping we all might make it through 

Doin' what it takes to do to keep it true 

I like to reminisce about that night we kissed 

It was somewhere in Harlem 

The nights were hot and bright, you could treat your honey right 

'Coz Sylvia's would burn all night, yeah 

Remember the times we struggled and still held on 

Remember the nights in Harlem 

Remember the times when we would dance all night long 

Remember the nights in Harlem 

Big sister had a group and they'd sit out on the stoop 

And Lordy could they harmonize 

My cousin Joe could blow just like the radio 

And he used to drove them 'B' girls wild 

Remember the times we struggled and still held on 

Remember the nights in Harlem 

Remember the times when we would dance all night long 

Remember the nights in Harlem 

Remember the times we struggled and still held on 

Remember the nights in Harlem 

Remember the times when we would dance all night long 

Remember the nights in Harlem 

Hey yeah 

Oh yeah 

Hey, yo, the blocks are hot, uptown, you know the spots 

Night life where this playa's game is quite tight 

One two five where my name's inscribed 

Sparkin' trees, avoiding felonies, keepin' it love 

Headed for them riches, straight to stardom 

Can't forget the struggle, all Brooklyn to Harlem 

Dapper Dan's, shows at the Apollo 

Harlem days, summertime is my rhyme ya follow 

And through the pain, we held on 

With more to obtain, more to gain 

Ya can't dwell on bad vibes and sad lives we encountered 

Take care of self and family, that's what it amounts to 

Inhale so you could feel this realness 

In New York sound, down with more cats than Felix 

Steal this? Yeah, some they may wanna 

You can't duplicate the great, I make it warmer 

Just like the Harlem world streets we all knew 

We coming up this time, we all flow, we all glow 

Each one's gotta shing, a better life 

That's what each one's gotta find 

Remember the times we struggled and still held on 

Remember the nights in Harlem 

Remember the times when we would dance all night long 

Remember the nights in Harlem 

Remember the times we struggled and still held on 

Remember the nights in Harlem 

Remember the times when we would dance all night long 

Remember the nights in Harlem 

Remember the times we struggled and still held on 

Remember the nights in Harlem 

Remember the times when we would dance all night long 

Remember the nights in Harlem 

Remember the times we struggled and still held on 

Remember the times when we would dance all night long
