Night-time sharpens,
heightens each sensation...
Darkness stirs and
wakes imagination...
Silently the senses
abandon their defenses...
helpless to resist
the notes I write
for I compose
the Music of the Night.
Slowly, gently
night unfurls its splendor
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 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 you mind
start a journey through a
stange, new world!
Leave all thoughts
of the world
you knew before!
Let you 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...
You were once
my one companion...
you were all
that mattered...
You were once
a friend and father--
then my world
was shattered...
Wishing you were
somehow here again...
wishing you were
somehow near...
Sometimes it seemed,
if I just dreamed,
somehow you would
be here...
Wishing I could
hear your voice again...
knowing that I
never would...
Dreaming of you
won't help me to do
all that you dreamed
I could...
Passing bells
and sculpted angels
cold and monumental,
seem for you
the wrong companions--
you were warm and gentle...
Too many years
fighting back tears...
Why can't the past
just die...?
Wishing you were
somehow here again...
knowing we must
say goodbye...
Try to forgive...
teach me to live...
give me the strength
to try...
No more memories
no more silent tears...
no more gazing across
the wasted years...
Help me say
goodbye.
