He sees a frozen shadow   Cold int he neon flash   He sees the ghost of a chance in her eyes   He longs to take her away   To a place where love can last   Without all these empty memories   Of all the emptier loves in her life   'Cause He knows how bad it an get   And He sees her lose   Though she pays her dues   She still wins up in debt   And the night cracks   Like a whip in her heart   And she looks into the light   He takes her out of the darkness      CHORUS:   He's a thief in the night   Where souls are for sale, but nobody buys   Please, believe me when I   When I tell you His love    Is a steal at any price      He sees a broken bottle   There in a young boy's hand   It's full of the anger    That's cut him so deep   He longs to take him in   And show He understands   And give him something that's more than   A promise that no one will keep   'Cause He knows how bad it can hurt   When you and try and you try   'Til you don't know why   'Cause you still find that nothing works   And his heart cracks   Like a whip in the night   He takes him out of the darkness   And into the night and      CHORUS
