Mother Night

Somewhere between the sunset and dawn Where the angry glare of day is dead and gone When most start sleeping She comes creeping with the silence of alley cats None other than the mother of dreams So beautiful and dark in her majesty She draws you near her magic mirror Filled with silver-lined silhouettes The stars that burn infernally Shine on nocturnally finer things, yeah So beautiful is the sight So beautiful her garden of dark delights So beautiful in lunar light - love you mother night And with a little help from my mom Who covers restless lovers with shadows calm I'll hold you tightly Love you rightly under hovering summer stars I'm just a lunatic - a mad balladeer I'll love you darkly but have no fear Do not be frightened We've got moonlight to brighten our lonely hearts The stars that burn infernally Shine on nocturnally finer things, yeah So beautiful is this site So beautiful her garden of dark delights So beautiful in lunar light - love you mother night So beautiful is this site So beautiful her garden of dark delights So beautiful in lunar light - love you mother night So beautiful in lunar light So beautiful in lunar light So beautiful - love you mother night
