Lyrics

[Intro]
Mmm
Yeah
Mmm
[Verse 1]
I was a little too small, coulda used a few pounds
Tight skirts, points hardly renowned
He was a handsome devil, with mischief in his eyes
Together, we filled a void in our lives
[Verse 2]
Ooh, it might've been wrong, but it felt so right
Ooh
Out past the cornfields where the woods got heavy
Out in the backseat of that 'ole '60 Chevy
Yeah
Workin' on mysteries without any clues, mhm
[Chorus]
Just workin' on our night moves
Tryin' to make some front page drive-in news
Workin' on our night moves
In the summertime
Makin' memories
In the sweet summertime, summertime, mhm
[Verse 3]
We weren't in love, oh no, far from it
We weren't searchin' for some pie in the sky or summit
Ooh
We were just young, and restless, and bored
Living by the sword
[Verse 4]
And we'd steal away every chance we could
To backrooms, alleys, or the trusty woods
I used him and he used me
Neither one cared, we were gettin' our share
[Chorus]
Workin' on our night moves
Tryin' to lose those awkward teenage blues
Workin' on our night moves, mhm
Ooh, summertime
Don't you remember
Sweet summertime, summertime, summertime?
[Bridge]
Oh, I, I wonder, mhm
Whoa, I wonder, yeah
Felt the lightnin'
Felt the lightnin'
Waitin' on the thunder
Wait on the thunder, yeah
[Verse 5]
I woke last night to the sound of thunder
How far off I sat and wondered
Started hummin' a song from 1962
Ain't it funny how the night moves?
When you just don't seem to have as much to lose
Strange, how the night moves
With autumn closin' in
[Outro]
Mhm
Ooh, mmm
Sweet memories
Night moves
Whoa
Oh-whoa-oh
[Outro]
Oh, night moves
Workin' on our night moves
Oh, we been practicin'
Oh, yeah, I remember
I remember you
I will never forget you
Yeah
Night moves
[Outro]
I remember, I remember, I remember, I remember you too
Night moves
Finding heaven 'neath a sky of stars, yeah
Remember rockin' that 'ole Chevy car
Mmm, those night moves
Ooh
Thinkin' 'bout your night
Night moves
[Outro]
Skinny dippin' in a cement pond
Yes, I remember
Jitter Buggin' on the church house lawn
Ooh, I remember
Night moves
Ooh
Workin' on our night moves
Yeah
Oh, oh
Oh, I remember you too
Oh, I remember, I remember, I remember you
Yeah
Yeah
