The Music of the Night - Randal Keith

Nighttime sharpens, heightens each sensation Darkness stirs and wakes imagination Silently the senses abandon their defences Slowly, gently night unfurls its splendour Grasp it, sense it tremulous and tender Turn your face away from the garish light of day Turn your thoughts away from cold unfeeling light And listen to the music of the night Close your eyes and surrender to your darkest dreams Purge your thoughts of the life you knew before Close your eyes, let your spirit start to soar And you'll live as you've never lived before Softly, deftly music shall caress you Hear it, feel it secretly possess you Open up your mind, let your fantasies unwind In this darkness that you know you cannot fight The darkness of the music of the night Let your mind start a journey through a strange new world Leave all thoughts of the life you knew before Let your soul take you where you long to be Only then can you belong to me Floating, falling sweet intoxication Touch me, trust me, savour each sensation Let the dream begin, let your darker side give in To the power of the music that I write The power of the music of the night You alone can make my song take flight Help me make the music of the night

Nighttime sharpens, heightens each sensation Darkness stirs and wakes imagination Silently the senses abandon their defences Slowly, gently, night unfurls its splendour Grasp it, sense it tremulous and tender Turn your face away from the garish light of day Turn your face away from cold, unfeeling light And listen to the music of the night Close your eyes and surrender to your darkest dreams! Put your thoughts of the world you knew before! Close your eyes, let your spirit start to soar! And you'll live as you've never lived before Softly, deftly, music shall surround you Feel it, hear it, closing in around you Open up your mind, let your fantasies unwind In this darkness which you know you cannot fight The darkness of the music of the night Let your mind start a journey through a strange, new world! Leave all thoughts of the world you knew before! Let your soul take you where you long to be! Only then, can you belong to me Floating, falling, sweet intoxication! Touch me, trust me, savour each sensation! Let your dream begin, let your darker side give in To the harmony of the music that I write The power of the music of the night! You alone can make my song take flight Help me make the music of the night...

Ah, one, two, three, go Now lately I've been livin' in a world that's black and white Ever since you left, all the colors just drained out of my life And I been goin' through the motions I can feel myself slippin' away, slippin' away I keep thinkin' 'bout that summer, South Daytona Beach We never left the bed, no, we never got no sleep And I been lookin' back and thinkin' 'bout the way it was The way we were, we were reckless, so reckless When I was with you, baby, I was Superman Yeah, we were sky high, there was nothing better When I was with you, grabbin' that live wire Where we were Johnny and June in a ring of fire Now you're caught up in my head like a melody Of the sweetest summer song that we used to sing Ooh, when I was with you, when I was with you (when I was with you) On some starry summer nights, I still wonder where you are Are you still breakin' all the hearts of all the boys that play guitar? And just goin' through the motions of emotions It's slippin' away, slippin' away, mm But even with all that, girl, I'd still trade a few heartbeats For one more sleepless night tangled up between your sheets And I been lookin' back and thinkin' 'bout the way it was The way we were and those hundred mile an hour curves When I was with you, baby, I was Superman Yeah, we were sky high, there was nothing better When I was with you, grabbin' that live wire (live wire) Where we were Johnny and June in a ring of fire Now you're caught up in my head like a melody Of the sweetest summer song that we used to sing Ooh, when I was with you, when I was with you, oh When I was with you Oh, now you're caught up in my head like a melody Of the sweetest summer song that we used to sing Ooh, when I was with you, when I was with you Hey, hey, hey
