Nighttime sharpens, heightens each sensation

Darkness wakes, and stirs 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

Hearing is believing

Music is deceiving

Hard as lightning

Soft as candlelight

Dare you trust the music of the night

Close your eyes

For your eyes will only tell the truth

And the truth isn't what you want to see

In the dark it is easy to pretend

That the truth is what it ought to be

Softly, deftly, music shall caress you

Hear it, feel it, secretly possess 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

Close your eyes

Start a journey through a strange new world

Leave all thoughts of the life you knew before

Close your eyes

And let music set you free

Only then can you belong to me

Floating, falling, sweet intoxication

Touch me, trust me, savor 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

Music Of The Night Lyrics
