Heart Of The Night

In the heart of the night
 In the cool southern rain
 There's a full moon in sight
 Shining down on the Pontchartrain
 And the river she rises
 Just like she used to do
 She's so full of surprises
 She reminds me of you
 In the heart of the night
 In the heart of the night
 In the heart of the night
 Oh, whoa, down in New Orleans
 There's a night bird singing
 Right on through till the dawn
 And the streets are still ringing
 With people carrying on
 It's been so long waiting
 Just to be here again
 Anticipating
 All the time I could spend
 In the heart of the night
 In the heart of the night
 In the heart of the night
 And I trust in your love
 Never falling down
 I trust in your love
 Just like I do in this town
 Whoa, never falling down
 Whoa, never falling down
 In the heart of the night
 In the cool fallin' rain
 There's a full moon in sight
 Shining down on the Pontchartrain
 And the river she rises
 Just like she used to do
 She's so full of surprises
 Oh, momma, she reminds me of you
 Right here, in the heart of the night
 In the heart of the night
 In the heart of the night, oh, oh
 Down in New Orleans
 And I'm so glad to be back in New Orleans
 Please don't wake me, don't shake me
 If it's only, if it's only just a dream
 'Cause it's the only place I can face that makes me feel so right
 Below that Dixie moon and loving you
 In the heart of the night
