Well it was alright at midnight and you fell out at three So I made you warm and stoked the dying fire When it all came down this morning you were lying next to me How sweet the wine of desire Well we cheated on a friend and cheaters never win Oh the truth I know would be a small relief I could never be the one to say Her best friend took you down Gonna run in the night hide when ever it's light Gonna run in the night like a thief Just ain't no use think it over I was blind but now I see Well she's coming back and I know just what I'll do If it comes right down to you leaving her or staying here with me How sweet the memory of you Well we cheated on a friend and it looks like I lose again I could never be the one to say Her best friend took you down I'd rather run in the night hide when ever it's light Gonna run in the night like a thief SOLO Like a thief in the night hide when ever it's light Gonna run in the night like a thief From Bonnie Raitt "Homeplate" Warner Brothers 1975 EMI April Music/Warner/Chappell/Music(ASCAP)
