Night In My Veins
The Pretenders · The Best Of The Pretenders 2009 + Break Up The Concrete [2011]
I see him standing silhoetted in the lamp light
I cross the street and I quicken my pace
He cups his hands and he
Lights a cigarette
I find myself in the bones
Of his face.
It's just the night in my veins
Oh oh making me crawl in the dust again
It's just the night under my skin
Slipping it in
He's got his hands in my hair
And his lips everywhere
Oh yeah, it feels good. It's alright
It's just the night in my veins
He's got me up against the back of a pick up truck
Out of sight of the neon glare
His mouth is welded on me on a beach under the moonlight
Lovers lane, he treats the same. Anywhere
It's just the night in my veins
making me crawl in the dust again
It's just the night, under my skin
Slipping it in
he's got his chest on my back
Cross a new cadillac
Oh yeah, feels good. it's alright
It's just the night in my veins
It's just the night in my veins
Instrumental
I got my head on the kerb
And I can't produce a word
Oh yeah, it feels good, it's alright
It's just the night in my veins
It feels good, it's alright
It's just the night in my veins
It's just the night in my veins
It feels good, it's alright
It's just the night in my veins
I cross the street and I quicken my pace
He cups his hands and he
Lights a cigarette
I find myself in the bones
Of his face.
It's just the night in my veins
Oh oh making me crawl in the dust again
It's just the night under my skin
Slipping it in
He's got his hands in my hair
And his lips everywhere
Oh yeah, it feels good. It's alright
It's just the night in my veins
He's got me up against the back of a pick up truck
Out of sight of the neon glare
His mouth is welded on me on a beach under the moonlight
Lovers lane, he treats the same. Anywhere
It's just the night in my veins
making me crawl in the dust again
It's just the night, under my skin
Slipping it in
he's got his chest on my back
Cross a new cadillac
Oh yeah, feels good. it's alright
It's just the night in my veins
It's just the night in my veins

I got my head on the kerb
And I can't produce a word
Oh yeah, it feels good, it's alright
It's just the night in my veins
It feels good, it's alright
It's just the night in my veins
It's just the night in my veins
It feels good, it's alright
It's just the night in my veins
