'That night will live forever Their first time to lie together They were finally where desire dared them to go Both belonging to another But longing to be lovers Promising each other that the night will only know.' Obviously stating that the charachters will remember the night forever,firstly this is because it is their first time going to have sex with each other. THey are both married but have been longing to be together for a long time and now they finally are they have decided that it will forever be their own secret. 'Parked on some old backstreet They laid down in the backseat And fell into the fire down below But they would pay for their deceving For a deadly web was weaving Why they picked that spot that evening Lord, the night will only know' They have decided to have their affair in the car parked away from public view.The spot wasn't planned it was random but little did they know it would haunt them. 'Well within the innuendos Just outside the steamy windows The night was shattered by a woman's scream Motionless and frightened The grip of fate had tightened And with trembling hands they wiped away the steam.' Whilst having a good bit of fun they've heard a woman screaming outside which has obviously shocked them and they've had to carefully look to see what happened. 'They saw a woman pleading Stumbling, begging, and retreating 'Til she became the victim of a foe And they watched her fall in silence To save their own alliance But the reason for the violence Just the night will only know' Obviously they have just witnessed a woman being tortured and murdered. They have done nothing to intervien mainly because they know that by doing so they will have to admit their own adultery. They have no idea why this has happened either but they do not want to find out to save themself from being caught. 'And every paper ran the story She was stripped of all her glory And they told exactly how the woman died Abandoned and forsaken Too many pills were taken And they ruled the woman's death a suicide.' This is the interesting part, obviously after the womans murder has been made to look like suicide through drugs she is made out to be just a nohoper in the press. The question is why? It indicates that perhaps the murdered was someone of importance,perhaps a police chief or someone in government who could perhaps been with a hooker or similar. Not to important though as the song is more about the affair than the murder. 'Bound by their behavior They could have been her savior Now guilt becomes an endless debt they owe But another crime was committed And it's never been admitted Have the guilty been acquitted Lord, the night will only know.' The couple could have saved the poor womans name,but they didn't and the reason was puerly to hide their own 'crime' the affair that they do not want exposed to keep their own little life storm free.So the cheating couple must pay with guilt forever to hide their secret. |
