Elliott Yamin sings ‘Sharing the Night Together’

I’ve always loved Sharing the Night Together. This lovely little song holds many memories for this child of the 80s, and while the song never really meant anything to me (read: never had anyone to ’share the night’ with while that song was popular), the tune and the lyrics always bring a pleasant little smile to my face.

Imagine my shock and utter glee when I learned that Elliott Yamin actually has a version of this song! Elliott’s Sharing the Night Together improves on the original in my opinion, infusing a soulfulness that adds new meaning and listening value to the song. Amazing work, Elliott! My wife is going to flip! Lyrics after the jump.

SHARING THE NIGHT TOGETHER
Elliott Yamin

You’re looking kinda lonely girl
Would you like someone new to talk to, ah yeah alright
I’m feeling kinda lonely too
If you don’t mind can I sit down here beside you
Ah yeah alright

If I seem to come on too strong
I hope that you will understand
I say these things ’cause I’d like to know
If you’re as lonely as I am
And if you mind

Sharing the night together, oh yeah
Sharing the night together, oh yeah, sharing the night

We could bring in the morning girl
If you want to go that far
And if tomorrow find us together
Right here the way we are
Would you mind

Sharing the night together, oh yeah
Sharing the night together, oh yeah, sharing the night

Would you like to dance with me and hold me
You know I want to be holding you
Ah yeah alright ’cause I like feeling like I do
And I see in your eyes
That you’re liking it too, ah yeah alright
Like to get to know you better
Is there a place where we can go
Where we can be alone together
And turn the lights down low and start sharing the night …

    great stuff! i’ve always loved Dr. Hook as well and I’d say Mr. Yamin does justice to the song :) His voice is oh-so-great (forgive me, but i really am a big fan of his :P)
