Tom : Dm
Dm
That night will live forever
Dm
Their first time to lie together
A Dm
They were finally where desire dared them to go
Dm
Both belonging to another
Dm
But longing to be lovers
A Dm
Promising each other that the night will only know
Parked on some old backstreet
They laid down in the back seat
And fell into the fire down below
But they would pay for their deceiving
For a deadly web was weaving
Why they'd picked that spot that evening
Lord, the night will only know
F
Well within the innuendos
Dm
Just outside the steamy windows
F A
The night was shattered by a woman's scream
Dm
Motionless and frightened
Dm
The grip of fate had tightened
A Dm A Dm A
And with trembling hands they wiped away the steam
They saw a woman pleading
Stumbling, begging and retreating
Until she became the victim of her foe
And they watched her fall in silence
To save their own alliance
But the reason for the violence
Just the night wil only know
F
And every paper ran the story
Dm
She was stripped of all her glory
F A
And they told exactly how the woman died
Dm
Abandoned and forsaken
Dm
Too many pills were taken
A Dm A Dm A
And they ruled the woman's death as suicide
Bound by their behavior
They could have been her savior
Now guilt becomes the endless debt they owe
But another crime was committed
And it's never been admitted
Have the guilty been acquitted
Lord, the night will only know
