Inside the night

 Inside the night

I'll see you there

Inside the night

The sacred night

Inside the night

Inside its lair

Wrapped up in its arms

Blanket of the dark

Inside the night

The mind of a shark

The idea of death

In the mind of someone living

Inside the night

Turn off the light

Meet me middle of the street

On the right

I'll be there


Otherside of today

Bottom end of tomorrow

Lifting up the stars

Revealing the universe so hollow

We are

Just little insects

Buzzing round in our cars

But inside the night

We can come alive there


Nothing matters baby but you and I are together

Inside the night

Oh for ever and ever

Wave off today, Put off tomorrow

Let us free inside the night

Outside of sorrow


They may be baying for our blood

Or wishing on us horror

Still inside the night

We are the otherside of the mirror

Where I can see you

And you can see me fly like a swallow

When we are inside the night

With nothing left to borrow


We are inside the night

And it's all so crystal clear

The beer bottles have stopped singing

They're swinging from the chandelier

And I can hear nothing but silence

And I'm waiting for them to fall

But while we're inside the night

I know we still rule them all
