“All Through The Night” was penned quickly by Jules Shear in a rented house in England as his wife’s band rehearsed. He released it on his own album the same year it was covered by Lauper for her debut album She’s So Unusual. It was her fourth single release and fourth consecutive top 5 in the US, reaching #5 in late 1984. It notably achieved success without a music video, which was almost mandatory with the international success of MTV at the time. “All Through The Night” also made the top 30 in four countries overseas.
Lyrics:
Cyndi Lauper All Through the Night Lyrics From The Album She’s So Unusual (1983) [Verse 1] All through the night I'll be awake, and I'll be with you All through the night This precious time when time is new Oh, all through the night today Knowing that we feel the same without saying [Chorus] We have no past, we won't reach back Keep with me forward all through the night And once we start the meter clicks And it goes running all through the night Until it ends, there is no end [Verse 2] All through the night Stray cat is crying, so stray cat sings back All through the night They have forgotten what by day they lack Oh, under those white street lamps There is a little chance they may see [Chorus] We have no past, we won't reach back Keep with me forward all through the night And once we start the meter clicks And it goes running all through the night Until it ends, there is no end [Bridge] Oh, the sleep in your eyes is enough Let me be there, let me stay there awhile [Chorus] We have no past, we won't reach back Keep with me forward all through the night And once we start the meter clicks And it goes running all through the night Until it ends, there is no end Keep with me forward all through the night And once we start the meter clicks And it goes running all through the night Until it ends, there is no end Written By Jules Shear Recorded At The Record Plant (New York City) Release Date September 3, 1984
