The song you're looking for is "Steppin' Out" by Joe Jackson. The lyrics are as follows:



Now -

The mist across the window hides the lines

But nothing hides the colour of the lights that shine

Electricity so fine

Look and dry your eyes



We -

So tired of all the darkness in our lives

With no more angry words to say

Can come alive

Get into a car and drive

To the other side



Me babe - steppin out

Into the night

Into the light

You babe - steppin out

Into the night

Into the light



We -

Are young but getting old before our time

Well leave the t.v. and the radio behind

Dont you wonder what well find

Steppin out tonight



You -

Can dress in pink and blue just like a child

And in a yellow taxi turn to me and smile

Well be there in just a while

If you follow me



Me babe - steppin out

Into the night

Into the light

You babe - steppin out

Into the night

Into the light





Hope that helps. :)

When I was music director at a college radio station in '84, there was also a little-known electro-metal band in the early 80's called "Spyz" with a tune entitled "Into the Night".. excellent song & album that I cant find today.

It took me a couple hours of Google searching, but I used lyric fragments to eventually nail down the song that, admittedly, plays in my head every so often too.  One of those childhood memory things...



Song: "Steppin' Out"



Artist: Joe Jackson

The song is called Stepping out by Joe Jackson.

Its 5 years after you post this so hopefully you already found it but if not I know this is the song you are looking for.

THANK YOU!  I have had this song going through my head for the better part of 18 months.  I heard it in a Dallas CVS pharmacy, but never got the name or the artist.  My friends mock me by humming it, reminding me that I can't find the title.



At last.  Sweet Jesus, I can rest!

I absolutely love this song but could never find out who sang it. For the past 2 yrs., I would turn on a radio station and it would always be just ending. My many internet searches failed until tonight.



Funny thing is, I called my sister after I found out and hummed the song just to see if she recognized it. She immediately responded, "The lyrics go something like: 'me babe, stepping out.....'.  Heh heh

I couldn't help but laugh at the irony.

If your lyrics are off by one letter, as I suspect, the song for which you're looking is actually Joe Jackson's "Steppin' Out" from -- you guessed it -- 1982.
