ROD STEWART - A NIGHT LIKE THIS Lyrics

Sixteen years old, looking for a hideawayI'm a set designer, my Mum and Dad thinking I'm gayI'm a lazy bugger, but I like my sportLike girls and music, I'm happy, happy sort (of a guy)But there's one thing I'm lacking it's sexual experienceSo I ask you, my sweetheart save me from this wildernessI've dreamed, honey, of a night like thisWhere I come from, love is just a hole in the wallAnd the steel mills ring out and generations heed the callAnd the rain never stops and the skies are greyAnd the chance of romance slim as a bright sunny dayThis is partly the reason I'm so overwhelmed and shyBecause your beauty, by contrast is gonna make a young man cryI've dreamed, honey, of a night like thisI've schemed, honey, of a night like thisYou don't know what it means to a boy from a suburban homeTo be left with a woman like you completely aloneI've dreamed, honey, of a night like thisNice place you've got here, babenever seen a house like thisPool like an ocean, bed like a football pitchAll the guys at the boozer, won't believe my luckBut it couldn't have happened to a nicer bloke (than me)So here we are, the record's gotten stuck in the grooveMy knees are trembling, c'mon baby, make a moveI've dreamed, honey, of a night like thisI've schemed, honey, of a night like thisI've dreamed, I've schemed, honey of a night like thisI've dreamed, honey, of a night like this
