wide awake in the middle of the night i wonder how she s feeling is it just a trick of the light or is her ceiling peeling she s sitting up in bed shaking her head at a copy of true confessions oh it must seem like a fairy tale to a woman of her profession but was i all right did i take you to the height of ecstasy was i all right did a shadow of emotion cross your face or was it just another trick of the light what s a nice girl like you doing in a place like this they don t make girls like you no more and i d like to get to know you on closer terms than this but i guess you ve heard it all before lady of the night won t you steal away with me lady of the night won t you steal away with me the money s lying on the floor she looks at me shakes her head and sighs out of time out the door red light shining in my eyes  all right but was i all right all right 1
