Fool In The Night Lyrics

[Verse 1]
She comes alive when the sun goes down
She's a Jekyll and Heidi
Each day at five, there's a look in her eyes
All the men read as "try me"

[Pre-Chorus]
Searching for love in all the wrong ways
Closing her mind to all that I say
She's chasing lines without any words
She's a woman but she's still a little girl

[Chorus]
Fool in the night looking for love
Turn on the lights, show her it's dusk
(She's just a) fool in the night looking for love
Turn on the lights, show her it's dusk
Why doesn't anybody care?

[Verse 2]
She plays a queen on the singles scene
But she's really a pawn
Running around in her polyester dream
That lasts until dawn

[Pre-Chorus]
Looking for love in all the wrong places
Closing her eyes to all the lying faces
She's chasing lines without any words
She's just a woman but she's still a little girl
[Chorus]
Fool in the night looking for love
Turn on the lights, show her it's dusk
(She's just a) fool in the night looking for love
Turn on the lights, show her it's dusk
Why doesn't anybody care

[Bridge]
About her dream and a wedding in white?
With a shining knight who would fight to protect her
From all those lonely nights

Don't abuse and use her heart
She's just a child in a singles bar
She's not a toy to use and simply discard

[Verse 3]
Moves to the left but she wants Mr. Right
She wants him tonight
Lonely dreams have taken control of her soul
Can't tell wrong from right

[Pre-Chorus]
Searching for love in all the wrong ways
Closing her mind to all that I say
She's chasing lines without any words
She's a woman but she's still a little girl
[Chorus]
Fool in the night looking for love (yeah, yeah, yeah)
Turn on the lights, show her it's dusk
(She's just a) fool in the night looking for love
Turn on the lights, show her it's dusk
Why doesn't anybody care?

Fool in the night looking for love
Turn on the lights, show her it's dusk
(She's just a) fool in the night looking for love
Turn on the lights, show her it's dusk
Why doesn't anybody care
