Great nightlife


Oh the night, it's my world
Oh la noche, es mi mundo
city lights, painted girl
luces de la ciudad, chica pintada
in the day, nothing matters
durante el día, nada importa
it's the night, time that flatters.
es la noche, tiempo que halaga.

In the night, no control
Por la noche, no hay control
through the wall, something breaking
por la pared, algo penetra
wearing white, as you are walking
vestida  de blanco, mientras caminas
down the street of my soul.
por la calle de mi alma.

You take my self-, you take my self-control
me dejas sin, me dejas sin autocontrol
you got me living only for the night
me tienes que sólo vivo para la noche
before the morning comes a story's told
antes de que llegue la mañana se ha contado una historia
you take my self-, you take my self-control.
me dejas sin, me dejas sin autocontrol.

Another night, another day goes by
Otra noche, otro día que pasa
I never stop myself to wonder why
nunca me paro a preguntarme por qué
you help me to forget to play my role
me ayudas a que olvide hacer mi papel
you take my self-, you take my self-control.
me dejas sin, me dejas sin autocontrol.

I! I live among the creatures of the night
¡Yo! Yo vivo entre las criaturas de la noche
I haven't got the will to try and fight
no tengo la voluntad para tratar de luchar
against a new tomorrow so I guess
contra un nuevo mañana así que supongo que
I'll just believe it that tomorrow never comes.
me creeré que el mañana nunca llega.

A safe night!
¡Una noche segura!
I'm living in the forest of a dream
Vivo en el bosque de un sueño
I know the night is not as it would seem.
sé que la noche no es lo que parece.
I must believe in something so
Debo creer en algo así que
I'll make myself believe it that
me convenceré de que
this night will never go.
esta noche no acabará nunca.

Oh, oh, oh!
Oh, oh, oh!
Oh, oh, oh!
Oh, oh, oh!
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh!

Lyrics are repeated.

    1. Yes, Francisco, you're right. But her songs are still very popular and well-known for lots of people. So, thank you for reminding us this great song.
