The Thrill of It All

The sky is dark The wind is cold The night is young Before it's old and grey We will know The thrill of it all The time has come It's getting late It's now or never Don't hesitate or stall When I call Don't spoil The thrill of it all And before you go to sleep at night Preying shadows - do they ask you why? And in the morning through the afternoon Do you wonder where you're going to? Every word I use Each crumpled page Strange ideas Mature with age Like leaves When autumn falls Turn gold Then they hit the ground Every time I hear The latest sound It's pure whiskey Reeling round and around My brain Oh and all o' that jive It's driving me wild - The dizzy spin I'm in Everywhere I look I see your face I hear your name It's all over the place Hey girl Though you've gone Still I recall The trill of it all You might as well know what is right for you And make the most of what you like to do For all the pleasure that's surrounding you Should compensate for all you're going through So if you're feeling fraught With mental strain Too much thinking's got you down again Well let your senses skip Stay hip Keep cool To the thrill of it all When you try too much You lose control Pressure rises And so I'm told Something's got the give Oy Veh High life ecstasy You might as well live I can't see I can't speak I couldn't take more than another week Without you - oh no So I will drink my fill Till the thrill is you Oh the thrill of it all Oh the thrill of it all No I won't forget The thrill of it all No no no no no no no....
