The Thrill Of It All

Lyrics

The sky is dark
 The wind is cold
 The night is young
 Before it? s old and gray
 We will know
 The trill of it all
 The time has come
 It? s getting late
 It? s now or never
 Don? t hesitate or stall
 When I call, don? t 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 you? re 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
 It? s pure whiskey
 Reeling round and around
 My brain
 Oh, and all o? that jive
 It? s driving me wild
 The dizzy spin I? m in
 Everywhere I look
 I see your face
 I hear your name
 It? s 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 that? s surrounding you
 Should compensate for all you? re going through
 So if you? re feeling fraught
 With mental strain
 Too much thinking? s
 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 I? m told
 Something's got the give
 Oy Veh
 High life ecstasy
 You might as well live
 I can? t see
 I can? t 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 won? t forget
 The thrill of it all
 No, no, no, no, no, no, no
