Nellie

We're the pleasures of the nightime

That fade at dawn

Selling treasures of the nightime

Till night is gone!

And then when the party's over

Everybody's gone away

We stare at an empty day

What is there to do or say!

 

Nighttime is where we live

Night is when we give

Everything we have to give

Most lovers can rejoice

We don't have a choice

We just know we have to give

That's why the day can never be bright

For the girls of the night.

 

Lucy

Somewhere I know there's a someday

That's just for me

Everybody has a 'someday'

So why not me?

 

Nellie

Lucy do you really need to

Fill your heart with empty dreams.

You'll always be what you are

Stop chasing that distant star!

 

Nellie & Lucy

Night time is when we live

Night is when we give

Everything we have to give.

Most lovers can rejoice

We don't have a choice

We just know

We have to give

That's why the day

Can never be bright

For the girls of the night . . .

 

Lucy

Fly away, fly away

Let me find my wings!

 

Let me be

The girl I want to be!

 

Nellie

I'm afraid to fly away

For all I have is here!

 

Lucy

I have my hopes

 

Nellie

I have a child

And children must be fed

 

Forget your hopes

Or you will be misled!

 

With the dawn they dissapear!

 

Lucy

Then why are mine still here?

 

Both

Fly away!

Fly away!

Fly away!

 

Ask me to share your fantasies dear.

But don't ask me where tomorrow is.

Don't ask me where to find happiness

Though I know for sure where sorrow is.

 

Nellie

Sorrow is where the dark meets the light . . .

 

Lucy

Someday I pray my fears will take flight . . .

 

Both

Sorrow is when all hope fades from sight . . .

 

For the girls of the night . . .

We're the girls of the night . . .

Just the girls of the night . . .
