Such A Night – The Band (feat. Dr. John) (from “The Last Waltz” soundtrack)

Such a night, it’s such a night
Sweet confusion under the moonlight
Such a night, such a night
To steal away, the time is right

Your eyes caught mine, and at a glance
You let me know that this was my chance
But you came here with my best friend Jim
And here I am, tryin’ to steal you away from him

Oh, but if I don’t do it, you know somebody else will
If I don’t do it, you know somebody else will
If I don’t do it, you know somebody else will
If I don’t do it, you know somebody else will

And it’s such a night, it’s such a night
Sweet confusion under the moonlight
It’s such a night, such a night
To steal away, the time is right

Yeah, I couldn’t believe my ear and my heart just skipped a beat
When you told me to take you walkin’ down the street
Oh yeah, you came here with my best friend Jim
Here I am, I’m stealin’ you away from him

Oh, but if I don’t do it, you know somebody else will
If I don’t do it, you know somebody else will
If I don’t do it, you know somebody else will
If I don’t do it, you know somebody else will
‘Cause it’s such a night
