This is tonight   And it rains like in a French black and white movie of the 50's   I feel like a character in it who's just lost it all   Who is alone with his raincoat   And a face showing a yet unknown way out of it      Steamy hot summer night street makes me laugh   I enjoy waiting for a taxi   And I hope it's not gonna be here   Until I've had enough of this pleasant situation      Movie is on   There comes a lady through the night   She stops in front of me   And asks me for a light      To win some time   To introduce myself   I pretend not to know   In which pocket I got my matches      Movie is on   There comes a lady through the night   She stops in front of me   And asks me for a light      She is walking on but not too far   She disappears behind a door   Some cats down there inside a club   The Sixties play guitar      Movie is on   There came a lady through the night   She stopped in front of me   And asked me for a light      I enjoy the rain and my wet hair   Feel slightly stupid   But got to follow her      The club is empty   I am standing near the door   She is the only dancer   On the biggest floor
