Jim Steinman - Stark Raving Love lyrics

Prowling in the alley and stalking all the prey in the bars

It started out as a whisper but it's building right up into a shriek

You don't say nothing, but your body really knows how to speak

Chorus:

And it's the backbeat of the city on a Saturday night

If you're too scared to jump, then you gotta be shoved

It's the howling and the moaning and the crying of the lonely and a

Stark raving love, too much is never enough

Stark raving love, I may be desperate but I'm still looking tough

And it doesn't even matter what you gimme (gimme), gimme (gimme)

Too much is never enough

Now my blood is pumping faster and I'm ready for a stark raving love

They're burning up in their eyes and burning out in the street

Tires are burning rubber and screaming like a banshee in heat

The girls are looking really pretty and they're looking for the moment of truth

You're breaking out of your chains and you're breaking in a new pair of boots

(chorus)

Lost boys and golden girls, down on the corner and all around the world

Lost boys and golden girls, down on the corner and all around the world

It doesn't matter where they're going, or wherever they've been

'Cause they've got one thing in common it's true

They'll never let a night like tonight go to waste

And let me tell you something, neither will you

Neither will you, neither will you

(Solo)

Stark raving love, too much is never enough

Stark raving love, I may be desperate but I'm still looking tough

And it doesn't even matter what you gimme (gimme), gimme (gimme)

Too much is never enough

Now my blood is pumping faster and I'm ready for a stark raving love
