[Verse 1]
I look out my window, into the pouring rain
I wish I could tell you that I stopped hearing your name
And then I realize every thought of you
Runs a circle around my heart
I hear your voice haunting me
I feel your touch in the dark

[Chorus]
It was a night to remember
All your kisses I still taste
It was a night to remember
Can't forget the look on your face
Oh-no, oh

[Verse 2]
Starlight send a message like a beacon into the night
To tell you I'm lonely when I shut out the light
Because a part of me left with you
So I feel lost inside
Sometimes I look into my mirror
I see you shining through my eyes

[Chorus]
It was a night to remember
All your kisses I still taste
It was a night to remember
Can't forget the look on your face
Oh, It was a night to remember
All these feelings I can't erase
Oh, no

[Bridge]
Endless dreams
Around my shoulders
I cannot free (I cannot free)
This restless heart

[Chorus]
It was a night to remember
All your kisses I still taste
It was a night to remember
Can't forget the look on your face
No, It was a night to remember
Not enough time for you to stay
Oh, no (Oh, no)

[Outro]
Oh, it was a night to remember
All your kisses I still taste
It was a night to remember
Can't forget the look on your face
Oh, no...
Ah, nah...

An 80’s pop starlet that skyrocketed her way to the top of the mainstream game, Cyndi Lauper has made her mark as an artist both socially and musically.

Beginning her solo career in the 1983 with hit debut album She’s So Unusual, Lauper came to be a household name with the four top-five hits that came with the record, including breakthrough single “Girls Just Wanna Have Fun” and the visceral, chart-topping “Time After Time”. Her camp attitude, electrifying vocals, and unrelenting earworms made an impression on the general public, and she would take home Best New Artist and Best Album Package at the Grammy’s for She’s So Unusual, amidst 4 other nominations. Lauper would never reach the same sort of stardom again musically following She’s So Unusual, but her legacy was far from over.

She’s So Unusual set the ground for her next True Colors. Released in 1986, the album most notably contained title-track “True Colors”, which would grow to become a primary anthem of the gay rights movement. Lauper would later serve as a key advocate of the LGBT community, and she has fairly consistently addressed homophobia throughout her career.
