歌词
[Verse 1]
The heart of the city street was beating
Light from the neons turned the dark to day
We were too hot to think of sleeping
We had to get out before the magic got away
[Chorus]
We were running with the night
Playing in the shadows
Just you and I, 'til the morning light
We were running, running with the night
[Verse 2]
You were looking so good girl, heads were turning
You and me on the town ooh, we let it all hang out
The fire was in us, we were burning
We were going to go all the way and we never had a doubt
[Chorus]
We were running with the night
Playing in the shadows
Just you and I, 'til the morning light
We were running, running with the night
[Bridge]
We were so in love you and me
On the boulevard wild and free
Giving all we got, we laid it down
Taking every shot, we took the town
[Chorus]
We were running with the night
Playing in the shadows
Just you and I, 'til the morning light
We were running, running with the night
We were running with the night
Playing in the shadows
Just you and I, 'til the morning light
We were running, running with the night
[Outro]
Just you and I, girl it was so right (We were running)
Girl so right (running with the night)
So right

多添一点：
今天分享一首Lionel Richie 的《Running With The Night》。
人们普遍认为迈克尔·杰克逊是将黑人音乐和当代摇滚融合在一起的唯一。实际并非如此。今天带来另一位有这样作品的人。在杰克逊的《Thriller》专辑发行后不久。Lionel Richie 就发行了这张销量白金的专辑《Can’t Slow Down》。而今天这首歌曲也是这张专辑中比较火热的单曲之一。在公告牌百强单曲榜上排名第七，在公告牌成人当代和R&B排行榜上排名第六。这首歌夹在他的其他两首热门单曲之间:第一首单曲《All Night Long (All Night)》和第三首单曲《Hello》。这一系列的热门歌曲持续霸榜了6个月，1983年11月的《All Night Long (All Night)》登顶，1984年2月这首歌登顶第7名，1984年5月的《Hello》登顶第1名。可见歌好听谁也挡不住。
