Harden My Heart / Shadows of the Night
[SHERRIE]
Cryin' on the corner, waitin' in the rain
I swear I'll never, ever wait again
You gave me your word
But words for you are lies
Darlin' in my wildest dreams, I never thought I'd go
But it's time to let you know, oh
I'm gonna harden my heart
I'm gonna swallow my tears
I'm gonna turn and leave you here
All of my life I've been waitin' in the rain
I've been waiting for a feeling that never, ever came
It feels so close but always disappears
[JUSTICE]
Darlin', in your wildest dreams, you never had a clue...
But it's time you got the news, ooh
[SHERRIE]
I'm gonna harden my heart
[JUSTICE]
Harden your heart
[SHERRIE]
I'm gonna swallow my tears
[JUSTICE]
Swallow your tears
[SHERRIE]
I'm gonna
[with JUSTICE]
Turn and leave you here
[JUSTICE, spoken]
Hey, sweetie.
[LONNY, spoken]
This here is Justice Charlier. She owns the famous strip club--
[JUSTICE, spoken]
Hey!
[LONNY, spoken]
Excuse me. Gentlemen's club.
And mother to lots of lost souls on Sunset Boulevard. For a two-drink minimum, she'll provide you with a shoulder to cry on. In the champagne room? You can cry anywhere you like.
[JUSTICE]
You said - oh girl, it's a cold world
When you keep it all to yourself
I said you can't hide on the inside
All the pain you've ever felt
You better ransom my heart, but baby don't look back
'Cause we got nobody else
[JUSTICE & ENSEMBLE]
We're running with the shadows of the night
So baby take my hand, you'll be all right
Surrender all your dreams to me tonight
[JUSTICE]
They'll come true in the end
[SHERRIE]
I'm gonna
[with ENSEMBLE]
Harden my heart
[JUSTICE]
Harden your heart
[SHERRIE & ENSEMBLE]
I'm gonna swallow my tears
[JUSTICE]
Swallow your tears
[SHERRIE, JUSTICE & ENSEMBLE]
I'm gonna turn and leave you here
[SHERRIE]
Never in my wildest dreams, I never thought I'd go
But it's time to let you know, oh
[SHERRIE, simultaneously with JUSTICE & ENSEMBLE]
I'm gonna harden my heart
I'm gonna swallow my tears
I'm gonna turn and leave you here
We're running with the shadows of the night
So baby take my hand, you'll be alright
Surrender all your dreams to me tonight
They'll come true in the end
[JUSTICE, spoken]
Come on, baby, let’s go inside
