Trick Of The Light - The Who
Wide awake in the middle of the night
I wonder how she's feeling
Is it just a trick of the light
Or is her ceiling peeling?
She's sitting up in bed,
shaking her head
At a copy of True Confessions
Ooh, it must seem like a fairy tale
To a woman of her profession
But was I all right?
(was I all right?)
Did I take you to the height of ecstasy?
Was I all right?
(was I all right?)
Did a shadow of emotion cross your face
Or was it just another trick of the light?
But was I all right?
(was I all right?)
Did I take you to the height of ecstasy?
Was I all right?
(was I all right?)
Did a shadow of emotion cross your face
Or was it just another trick of the light?
Come on, tell me
What's a nice girl like
you doing in a place like this?
They don't make girls like you no more
And I'd like to get to know you
On closer terms than this
But I guess you've heard it all before
Lady of the night
Won't you steal away with me?
Lady of the night
Won't you steal away with me?
The money's lying on the floor,
she looks at me
Shakes her head and sighs
Out of time, out the door
Red light shining in my eyes
But was I all right?
(was I all right?)
Did I take you to the height of ecstasy?
Was I all right?
(was I all right?)
Did a shadow of emotion cross your face
All right?
But was I all right?
All right?
was I all right
