I Talk To The Night Lyrics - Southside Johnny And The Asbury Jukes

I Talk To The Night 

(J. Lyon/M. Noble) 

The sidewalk heaves a sigh of relief 

As the heat of the day finally fades 

The cracked asphalt bleeds rainbow beads 

That dance in the late evening haze 

And I turn from my whiskey and I peer out the door 

Here comes a boy that I've been waiting for 

Deep, dark and silent, the one I adore 

I talk to the night 

I talk to the night 

Hell, maybe I'm crazy, or maybe I'm just tight 

Whoa, yea, I talk to the night

Stand stretchin' stare in the deep sea gloom 

As the sharp edges melt away 

One big world, one little moon 

And the curtains shimmy and sway 

I reach for my glass and I hear the floor boards squeak 

I crawl into my bed and I hear my old bones creak 

Then in silence I wait for the darkness to speak 

And I talk to the night 

Oh, I talk to the night, yes I do 

She never argues, no we never fight 

I talk to the night 

Oh, I talk to the night 

Speak to me darlin' 

Into my head, the sharp words you said 

Stab like a lost child's cry 

I'm a loser at best, yea, and all the rest 

To which, of course, there is no reply 

No reply

I pulled down the shade and I turned off the light 

Blackness for me, but it holds no fright 

I dance with the darkness and my demons take flight 

And I talk to the night 

Oh, I talk to the night 

You know, my tongue gets tied in that bright daylight 

I talk to the night 

I speak with the darkness 

And I talk to the night 

I speak with the darkness 

And I talk to the night 

I speak with the darkness
