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 |

I don’t have much time and I’m being watched. |

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 |
