The night was not
As the doggies in the alley moaned
The night was not
And what you told me put me into shock

Put me through some heavy changes on the spot
Told me you were leaving though you loved me a lot
Now I've got to live with what I've got
But the night was not

The night was not
As the sirens faded down the block
The night was not
And as you packed your things I couldn't watch

But it isn't love that hurts so much
'Cause the love in me would give you up
In an illusion of love I was caught
But the night was not
But the night was not
But the night was not

But it isn't love that hurts so much
'Cause the love in me would give you up
In an illusion of love I was caught
But the night was not
But the night was not (the night was not)
(The night was not)
(The night was not)

No, no, the night was
No, no, the night was not (the night was not)
And the night was not
The night was not

No, no, the night was
No, no, the night was not (the night was not)
And the night was not
The night was not
