My Luxury Night 1977 (In The Velvet Night)

[Intro] [acoustic piano melody, clean electric guitar, slap bass, drums] [Verse 1] [male tenor vocals] The curtain falls, our story's just begun, A midnight drive, the city on the run. This fever in my heart is burning bright, No way to cool this passion in the night. [Verse 2] [brass section enters] The whispers of the wind embrace the trees, Blue city shadows swaying in the breeze. The fever of our night is burning on, We're drifting out of time until the dawn. [Chorus] Love is not a hollow game, it's the breath of life, Answer me, my only one, through the dark and strife. Deeper than the spoken words, something I can feel, Show me in this very moment, tell me this is real. [Verse 3] [piano and bass continue] You don't need to say a word, just a silent nod will do, Keep your eyes locked into mine, let the truth come shining through. [Instrumental Break] [saxophone solo, slap bass, rhythmic guitar] [Verse 4] I cannot pull away, the yearning starts to grow, Our shoulders drawing closer in the neon glow. The fever of our night is burning on, We're drifting out of time until the dawn. [Chorus] Love is not a hollow game, it's the breath of life, Answer me, my only one, through the dark and strife. Deeper than the spoken words, something I can feel, Show me in this very moment, tell me this is real. [Chorus 2] Love is not a hollow game, it's the breath of life, Isn't that the truth, my love, cutting like a knife? Here's the proof of all we share, leaning in the light, Holding onto one another, melting in the night. [Outro] A simple nod is all I need, the answer is so clear, I see it in your shining eyes, drawing me so near. My luxury, luxury in the night... [final piano chord, cymbal swell] [End]
