Lyrics:
(Chuck Jones/John Kilzer) Long legged shadows, Mississippi sunset She was standing like a candle that hadn't been burned yet The wind was blowing clouds like ashes Had my hand in my pocket, reaching for my matches I can see those cotton sheets a dancin' On her mama's clothesline in my head From my lips a lucky strike was danglin' The day was dying in a sea of red Then came the night warm and dark Draggin' it's chains across our hearts The moon was full, the grass was wet Making us scream, making us sweat Holding on tight, it was wrong, it was right Then came the night There was a time when love was a flower Now it's a vine that climbing up the tower And the river just rolls past the garden Where love won't grow and the ground is hardened I can hear the ringing mission bell Telling of the innocence that's dying A sound that I remember oh so well Then came the night warm and dark Draggin' it's chains across our hearts The moon was full, the grass was wet Making us scream, making us sweat Making us cling, making us claw Making us rise, making us fall Holding on tight, it was wrong, it was right Then came the night Breath on breath, skin on skin Can't go back there again Holding on tight, it was wrong, it was right Then came the night
