Mandalay I Don't Want The Night To End lyrics

Oh, mommy, mommy
Oh, mommy, mommy, yeah

I stood too near the gaslight and I cried
The dirty city mist had seeped too deep inside
It took me upon some kind of heady ride
It's only Charlie Parker died

And I don't want, I don't want
I don't want the night to end

Oh, daddy, daddy
Oh, daddy, daddy, yeah

Waited half my life on platforms underground
The other half I wasted as a desperate clown
My problem now is that you're not around

In dark delicious dreams of you I'll drown
And I, I don't want

I don't want the night to end

Oh, baby, baby
Oh, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby, yeah

Wrapped around your soul is where I wanna be
But in the night blue music's all I seem to see
The drunks out in the rain down on one knee
And what, and what is to become of you and me

And I don't want
I don't want the night to end

I don't want, I don't want
I don't want the night to end
I don't want the night to end
I don't want the night to end
