Spies In The Night |
| Shadows looking through an open window |
| Footsteps following wherever you go Undercover eyes |
| Search to find the key to alibis |
| Living in a hideaway |
| You can’t hide |
| You can never get away |
| They’ll find you |
| Be aware of strangers in the dark |
| Jealous lovers quarrel in suspicion |
| Passions justifying their positions |
| Vengeance on the rise |
| Now they’re throwing daggers from their eyes |
| Maybe they can find a way |
| Past their pride |
| Live and let it die away |
| If not they’ll |
| Lie a lot and fight a lot |
| But you beware |
| 'Cause in the air they’re |
| Spies in the night |
| They go wherever you are |
| You’re in their sight |
| Watch out for spies in the cold, cold, restless night |
| Heartache like a burning, turning fever |
| Someone tells his girl that he will leave her |
| Ooo her ravaged eyes |
| Kiss goodbye the years of hidden lies |
| Photos taken on display he denies |
| But the cheating heart will pay |
| She says you lie a lot |
| And fight a lot |
| but it’s in vain |
| You can’t explain 'cause |
| Spies in the night |
| They go wherever you are |
| You’re in their sight |
| Watch out for spies in the night |
| Sorry, now you will pay |
| Cheryl: Hello |
| Alan: The winds are calm in the channel. |
| Cheryl: The boat will sail at midnight. |
| Alan: Listen very carefully to me. |
| I don’t have much time and I’m being watched. |
| Cheryl: You’re being watched — By who? |
| Alan: I have your pictures. |
| Cheryl: Oh. |
| Thank you. |
| You don’t know how much this means to me. |
| Alan: Do you have my money? |
| Cheryl: Yes. |
| Of course I do. |
| Alan: Meet me in an hour. |
| Position A. Code 3XZ. |
| I’ll… |
| Cheryl: Hello! |
| Hello! |
| Hello!!! |
| Spies in the night |
| They go wherever you are |
| You’re in their sight |
| Watch out for spies in the night |
