Back in the summer of sixty-five I was feeling more dead than alive I was holding on to the radio You know it really helped me get by And, down the street she moved to the beat Just an angel in her daddy's car And through my life she cut like a knife And I'm still walking around with the scars... Somewhere in the night She's reaching out and touching me (Somewhere in the night) Somewhere in the night And I just can't let it go Somewhere in the night... Ooh, ooh in the night, yeah Seventeen caught in between What I was and what I wanted to be I was listening to no one And nobody was listening to me Then she said, oh baby I know how you feel And what you need is more than a friend You know that the first time that love feels real It can never come your way again... Somewhere in the night She's reaching out and touching me (Somewhere in the night) Somewhere in the night And I just can't let it go And after all my friends think I'm crazy Living in the past But all you get to keep are the memories You gotta make the good ones last Somewhere in the night She's reaching out and touching me (Somewhere in the night) Somewhere in the night And I just can't let it go to fade
