Song Lyrics

"Run the Night"

by John Reuben
Album: Hindsight

(chorus)
Let's get it done right
Everybody in the place is welcome tonight
So let's run the night

Hot coffee now keep me awake
For goodness sake it's late and now i'm feeling it
I've got so much on the mind with the need to unwind
Leave the day behind now are you feeling it
There's nothing wrong with that right
Everyone needs a break in life so I'm going to take one tonight
Empty the stress and find rest instead
Double dose of comatose drain my head and go brain dead
I went blank
I thank God for these moments when I don't have to think
I'm up in here while the night is near
Hey DJ Manuel put the music in my ear
Let me hear something contagious infectious
Play the set with freshness
Ah yes I guess the guest list includes you and I
And everyone else that chose to reply

(chorus)

The sun is setting letting the night creep on in
Outside in the streets I see the folks peeking in
One by one they start to slowly leak in
Looking lovely my friends what a unique blend
A collection of humanity brought to one spot
Individuals ready to unleash what they got
Yes and yes indeed bring
Something slick to mix up the evening
From entering to the time of leaving
We kept on and must continue keeping
Your interest peeking
Cuz you came seeking
For more than the ordinary less than extraordinary
Lord prepare me cuz I don't want to move on illusion
Hibernation in a fantasy of confusion
I choose so I chose the Life Giver
Cuz how could we create without love for the Creator

(chorus)

Come here folks we're about to provoke the night
Promote the night not just soak in the night
Take advantage of the night speak life through the night
Driven to give them some sort of peace in the night
While I'm with them I'm spitting wisdom
Hoping to hit them get them to listen
And make the room start living
Come alive we're about to tune it right
Take my hand we're about to dance under the moon light

(chorus)
