EVERY NIGHT I SEE YOU WALK THE STREET   POUND THE PAVEMENT FOR THE CALL
YOU LEAVE YOURSELF A LONG, LONG WAY TO FALL
ALL THE LONG NIGHTS AND THE BRIGHT LIGHTS   MAKE YOUR BROW WRINKLE SO
I GUESS NOW DAYS IT’S JUST TOO HARD TO LET GO
BUT YOU NEVER UNDERSTOOD    ALL OF THE LOVE THAT’S HERE INSIDE
YOU MADE ME A HAPPY MAN   THEN HE CAME AND CHANGED YOUR LIFE
AND IT’S YOU   HE SENDS YOU DOWNTOWN EVERY NIGHT

OH SWEET PAINTED LADY   I KNOW HE TEARS YOUR SOUL APART
I GUESS YOUR HEAD IS SPINNIN’ DARLING    AS EACH MAN TEARS AT YOUR HEART
WHAT SORT OF MAN IS HE   WHO WOULD PICK ALL THE PETALS FROM THE ROSE
NIGHT AFTER LONELY NIGHT   HE THROWS YOU DOWN TO THE DOGS AGAIN
AND IT’S YOU   HE SENDS YOU DOWNTOWN EVERY NIGHT

BABY SAY YOU’RE LEAVIN’   JUST TELL THE MAN YOU’RE THROUGH
‘ CAUSE ALL THOSE THINGS YOU NEED HIM FOR   I CAN DO FOR YOU
COME ON AND SEE THE LIGHT   IT’S THERE TO GUIDE YOU HOME TO ME
YOU MAKE ME A HAPPY MAN   COME ON GIRL AND CHANGE MY LIFE
‘CAUSE IT’S YOU   YOU SEND ME    EVERY TIME YOU SMILE
