In the still of the night
I hear the wolf howl, honey
Sniffing around your door
In the still of the night
I feel my heart beating heavy
Telling me I gotta have more

In the shadow of night
I see the full moon rise
Telling me what's in store
My heart start aching
My body start a shaking
And I can't take no more

No, no, no

Now I just wanna get close to you
And taste your love so sweet
And I just wanna make love to you
Feel your body heat

In the still of the night
In the still of the night
Over here baby

In the heat of the day
I hang my head down low
And hide my face from the sun
Through the light of the day
Until the evening time
I'm waiting for the night to come

Ooh, baby

In the still of the night
In the cool moonlight
I feel heart is aching
In the still of the night

Ooh, baby
Ooh, babe
I can't keep away
[Inaudible]
Need to be closer

I can't keep away
Can't keep away
Can't keep away
I can't keep away, no

You gotta give me love
Got to give me some loving everyday
Can't keep away

Ooh, baby
Ooh, Lord
Ahh

Tell me here, baby

In the still of the night
I hear the wolf howl, honey
Sniffing around your door
In the still of the night
I feel my heart beating heavy
Telling me I gotta have more

Ooh! Mama

Now I just wanna get close to you
And taste your love so sweet
And I just wanna make love to you
Feel your body heat

In the still of the night
Oh, yeah
In the still of the night
I will be [Incomprehensible] 'round your door

In the still of the night
In the still of the night
Ain't nothing gonna stop me now

Still of the night
Still of the night
Still of the night

Still of the night
Still of the night
Still of the night

Still of the night
Still of the night
Still of the night

    General Comment:this is a great song.i love the sound of it.and it is apperently based off of led zepplin's black dog.so it looks like all of you are right about the led zepplin shit.but i never heard about plant being pissed off about it.still its a great song.oh yeah and that whole thing about the violin part,its true that it was just done for show on the guitar in the video,but i heard that its actually multiple synthesisers and keyboards that played it.not an actual violin like who ever it was that said it.i could be wrong though

    General Comment:Wow, first poster is an obvious mouth-breather. Ballad, lol.

    This is a song about David Coverdale's raging sex mania.

    Cool song, I could personally have done without the quiet part where he sounds like he's jerking off. "Caaan't keep away,,,ohhhh."

    But the violin and the rest of the song are tight, awesome.

    General Comment:This isn't a bad song, obviously it caught my attention. But I agree 100% w/ blackestdog and samwalton, my god this is such a rip off of Robert Plant! If I were him I'd be pissed too. In fact, when I first heard this song I thought it was some random zep song I had never heard. I couldn't figure out why everytime I searched zeppelin still of the night, nothing came up...now I know why...

    General Comment:I'm not sure but I think it 's probably "I hear the wolf howl"*
    I like this song, the meaning is quite obvious xD

    General Comment:I just heard a rumor that Coverdale ordered to mute the beginning portion of Syke's solo, right where the song starts to build up after the slow part. I always thought that the rhythm guitar part by itself was just a crescendo, but now I could see how a lead guitar part could've been played over that. Does anyone know for sure? If true, where can we here that missing solo portion?
