History Is Made At Night

Put down the playbook
'Cause the things
I wanna show you
Can't be written down
Let my lips do the teaching.

Turn off the camera
Kick your shoes off
For this scene
You should be sitting down
Yeah, sitting close enough for reaching.

Turn down the lamp
For the last page
Has been turned.

When the dawn's breaking through
We can stop and review.

All the lessons you'll have learned
'Cause history is made at night
So close the books
Turn off the light and listen
Let my heart be the teacher.

No one here to disapprove
As we review the lessons
You've been missing
Let the moon be our only light
'Cause history is made at night.

I see the questions
Burning in your eyes
Or is it just reflections
Mmm, of the stars high above you?

Oh... I'm just your student
And I hope you won't be shy
Please, make corrections
Yeah, on the sweetest way to love you.

Come whisper close
Tell me just when to say when.

Then we'll sleep through the day
Then whenever you say.

That's when school begins again
'Cause history is made at night
So close the books
Turn off the light and listen
Let my heart be the teacher.

No one here to disapprove
As we review the lessons
You've been missing
Let the moon be our only light
'Cause history is made at night.

C'mere...

Oh, oh, yes
Someday they'll write lots of books
About our fame and glory.

But if all their reports
Are just movies and sports.

They'll be missing the whole story
'Cause history is made at night
So close the books
Turn off the light and listen
Let my heart be the teacher.

No one here to disapprove
As we review the lessons
You've been missing
Let the moon be our only light
'Cause history is made at night.

Yes, our history was made at night.
