lyrics

It's a cold night
And it calls for cigarettes
It calls for whiskey drinks
And it calls for no regrets
It's gonna be a night where all the girls
Don't know who they're up against
And all those rational weekend warriors
have all gone off to bed.

And I need a long night
Like I need a rope around my neck.
I'll be swinging from the rafters
Before it all comes to an end.
Even though I'll count it as a loss
A loss is better than no bet
But I'll always be a betting man
Even when they stack the deck.

It's a cold night
And I should take care of myself
But not until I hit the bottom
Do I worry about my health
I can be burning like a flame
While I am chilled down to the bone.
I'll be soaring high above the rooftops
While I am sinking like a stone

And I need a long night
I need to get this off my chest.
It's not for picking up the pieces
It's for throwing out the rest
Tonight we've got a point to prove
We're not too old for this just yet
And what's the point of being a better man
If you can never be the best

I was a cold night
I thought I's never see the dawn
Now my skin's a suit of iron
To protect a soul that's made of stone.
But my heart still pounds a war drum rhythm
As it rattles in my chest
And I'm standing on the front lines
Watching the sun rise overhead.

And I needed last night
And I may need it again tonight
I'm a solitary warrior
In the solitary fight of his life.
I'll see you in the morning
and I'll have stories to tell
These night may be the stuff of legends
So let's make legends of ourselves.
