[Verse 1]
After dark when the lights turn on all over the world
Gamblers and musicians, lovers and harlots all turn on
I bid a hearty good morning to the evening that beckons me on
And dares me to sleep while the night half of the world moves along

[Verse 2]
After dark when the lights turn on all over the world
You'll find gamblers and musicians, lovers and harlots all turn on
I'll bid a hearty good morning to the evening that beckons me on
And dares me to sleep while the rest of the world moves along
