The Thrill Of It All Lyrics - Roxy Music

The sky is dark 

The wind is cold 

The night is young 

Before its old and gray 

We will know 

The trill of it all 

The time has come 

Its getting late 

Its now or never 

Dont hesitate or stall 

When I call, dont spoil 

The thrill of it all 

And before you go to sleep at night 

Preying shadows, do they ask you why? 

And in the morning through the afternoon 

Do you wonder where youre going to? 

Every word I use 

Each crumpled page 

Strange ideas 

Mature with age 

Like leaves 

When autumn falls 

Turn gold 

Then they hit the ground 

Every time I hear 

The latest sound 

Its pure whiskey 

Reeling round and around 

My brain 

Oh, and all o that jive 

Its driving me wild 

The dizzy spin Im in 

Everywhere I look 

I see your face 

I hear your name 

Its all over the place 

Hey girl 

Though you've gone 

Still I recall 

The trill of it all 

You might as well know what is right for you 

And make the most of what you like to do 

For all the pleasure thats surrounding you 

Should compensate for all youre going through 

So if youre feeling fraught 

With mental strain 

Too much thinkings 

Got you down again 

Well, let your senses skip 

Stay hip 

Keep cool 

To the thrill of it all 

When you try too much 

You lose control 

Pressure rises 

And so Im told 

Something's got the give 

Oy Veh 

High life ecstasy 

You might as well live 

I cant see 

I cant speak 

I couldn't take more than another week 

Without you, oh no 

So I will drink my fill 

Till the trill is you 

Oh, the thrill of it all 

Oh, the thrill of it all 

No I wont forget 

The thrill of it all 

No, no, no, no, no, no, no
