Night time sharpens   Heightens each sensation   Darkness stirs   And waits 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 to a strange new world   Leave all thoughts of the world 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   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
