Thief in the Night

Jean Shepard · Lonesome Love [1959]

(Harlan Howard)



This is our last kiss, our last moment of bliss

Darling, our love can never be right

For your ring's on her hand and my heart just can't stand

Stealing love like a thief in the night/



Never more shall we meet on some dimlited street

Darling who wrongs just don't make a right

So I'm sending you home for I just can't go on

Stealing love like a thief in the night.

Never more shall we meet on some dimlited street

Darling who wrongs just don't make a right

So I'm sending you home for I just can't go on

Stealing love like a thief in the night...
