Everybody says you ain’t no good for me
That I am suffering from a terrible disease
When the sun goes down behind the dying trees
I fall in love again, I’m happy as can be
I had a real good night
Six candles by the bed and no light in the sky
I raise my wicked head, I curse your wicked eyes
The flicker of the flame across your naked skin
Waves against the sand, the sun comes up again
And I had a real good night
I saw my friends, I saw my friends
Had to close my eyes
Had to fall asleep
And when I woke they were gone
Yeah, they were gone
I had a real good night
The people they say evil, the people they say good
They say the road to paradise leads through that cursed wood
But, I been through the darkness by the bright and shining one
I’ve spoken with the lost and lone in their dark and twining tongue
And I had a real good night
I saw my friends, I saw my friends
Had to close my eyes
Had to fall asleep
And when I woke they were gone
Yeah, they were gone
I had a real good night
