Night In My Veins Lyrics

I see him standing silhouetted in the lamplight
I cross the street and I quicken my pace
He cups his hands and he lights a cigarette
I find myself in the bones of his face

It's just the night in my veins
Oh, making me crawl in the dust again
It's just the night under my skin
Slipping it in

He's got his hands in my hair
And his lips everywhere
Oh yeah, it feels good, it's all right
Even if it's just the night in my veins

He's got me up against the back of a pick-up truck
Out of sight of the neon and glare
We might as well be on a beach under the moonlight
Love's language reads the same anywhere, yeah

It's just the night in my veins
Oh, making me crawl in the dust again
It's just the night under my skin
Slipping it in

He's got his chest on my back
Across a new Cadillac
Oh yeah, it feels good, it's all right
Even if it's just the night in my veins
Even if it's just the night in my veins, oh

I've got my head on the curb
And I can't produce a word
Oh yeah, it feels good, it's all right
Even if it's just the night in my veins
It feels good, it's all right
Even if it's just the night in my veins
Even if it's just the night in my veins

It feels good, it's all right
Even if it's just the night in my veins
Just the night in my veins

Pretenders are a rock band who came to prominence during the punk and new wave movement of the late 1970s due to their innovative songwriting and charismatic performances. The original band consisted of group founder, songwriter, vocalist, and rhythm guitarist Chrissie Hynde, lead and rhythm guitarist James Honeyman-Scott, bassist Pete Farndon, and drummer Martin Chambers. Save for Hynde, a native of Akron, Ohio, the original band members were all from the U.K. This band was fractured by drug-related deaths and numerous subsequent personnel changes have taken place over the years, with Hynde as the sole constant. With Hynde at the helm, the band drifted through more adult contemporary-oriented territory, but experienced a critical resurgence with a trio of albums released between the mid-90s and early 00s that explored a more mature side of the band's classic sound.
