Trick Of The Light Lyrics

 (Entwistle)
 
 Wide awake in the middle of the night
 I wonder how she's feelin'
 Is it just a trick of the light
 Or is her ceiling peeling?
 
 She's sitting up in bed, shakin' 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 doin' 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 lyin' on the floor, she looks at me
 Shakes her head and sighs
 Out of time, out the door
 Red light shinin' 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?
