|
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 splendour |
|
Grasp it, sense it, tremulous and tender |
|
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 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 |
