in the still of the night, i held you, held you tight
'cause i love you so, promise i'll never let you go
in the still of the night (in the still of the night)

wo i remember that night in may, the stars were bright up above
i hope and i'll pray to keep your precious love
so before the light, hold me again, dear, with all of your might
in the still of the night (in the still of the night)

(backup scat shoo wop shoo wa over sax solo)

so before the light, hold me again, with all of your might
in the still of the night (in the still of the night)
in the still of the night
