Desmond Child & Rouge - The Night Was Not (1979)

From the album - Runners In The Night (1979)
Also in the the 'Times Square' OST. =) =)
Thank you guys for watching and for your kind comments.

Lyrics:
The night was not
As the doggies in the alley moaned
The night was not
And what you told me put me into shock
Put me through some heavy changes on the spot
Told me you were leaving
Though you loved me a lot
Now i´ve got to live with what i´ve got
But the night was not

The night was not
As the sirens faded down the block
The night was not
And as you packed your things
I couldn´t watch
But it isn´t love that hurts so much
cause the love in me would give you up
In an illusion of love i was caught
But the night was not

This may sound silly to those of you that weren't dreamers.........I used to listen to this album in junior high(Clearwater Beach!) and dream about moving to Manhattan and being a part of the city, when I got there in 1987 this played the soundtrack to my life, wow.....thanks for posting this.

@tuttt99 One could argue that a big part of Glam metal was based on amplifying Desmond Child's songwriting. Bon Jovi, Alice Cooper,Kiss etc.

I love this song. So imagine my shock and dismay to find that it was by the same person who wrote those absolutely god-awful Bon Jovi songs back in the 80's. :|

I love the dance scene in Times Square to this song..
