You Know The Night
Jackson Browne

You know the night I met you

My eyes had been looking for you

All over everywhere

Over low roads, down highways, and bald deserts

You know the night

You know the night

Your eyes had this same shine about 'em, I noticed

And when I first looked through the wild, wayward mist

I felt such a warm friendly, cool sunny smile

That I wanted to look in your eyes for all time

And I felt like you feel

When you feel like the angels are curling your hair

And you feel like the devil is scratching your heel

I just felt like you feel

When you feel like the angels are curling your hair

And you feel like the devil is scratching your heel

Did you feel this way too when I met you?

You know the night I first met you

Did you look at me and think

Here's this guy who hopes like I hope

And sees the same kind of dreams I see

'Cause you wondered, I know

If your hopes could find shape

In the words that we used there to work back the fog

Your hopes and your plans for the good of the people

Could all of your hundred and one

Dreams just as bright as the sun

And all your wants and your hottest desires

Find shape in the flow of my talk?

You know the night

You know the night

And if my jellied brain turns to ashes and sand

There will still be such night smiles across all the land

There will still be such faces meeting here in the dark

And there around the corner, or maybe in the park

It's when we meet this way and we look at each other

We get a hold of our scattered aims and we bring em'

And beat them and wrestle and fight them and heat them

And beat them and weld them together

Like iron from the valley and fire from the sky

Like iron from the valley and fire from the sky

Like iron from the valley and fire from the sky

This blast furnace heat burns in our people's eyes

You know the night I met you

My eyes had been looking for you

All over everywhere

Over low roads, down highways, and bald deserts

And I felt like you feel

When you feel like the angels are curling your hair

And you feel like the devil is scratching your heel

I just felt like you feel

When you feel like the angels are curling your hair

And you feel like the devil is scratching your heel
