Lyrics

When all is dark and there’s no light
Lost in the deepest star of night
I see you

Your hands are shaking baby
You ain’t been sleeping lately
There’s something out there
And it don’t seem very friendly does it?
If I could help you I would help ya
But it’s difficult
There’s something much more powerful
Than both of us possessing me

I’ve got to get to grips
I don’t want to feel like this
Your voice keeps haunting me
I cannot eat or sleep
I’m going crazy in this hazy fantasy
You put a spell on me
Aw but I ain’t going down at all

So take your hands off me
Tonight I’m breaking free
This is the night
This is the night
So take your hands off me
Tonight I’m breaking free
This is the night
This is the night

There was a time
I would have walked on burning coals for you
Sailed across the ocean blue
Climbed the highest mountain
Just to call your name

The moon throws down its light
And cuts me to the quick tonight
The change is in the air
And nothing will ever be the same
You still look good to me
Oh but you're no good for me

I close my eyes
And squeeze you from my consciousness
And in the morning when I wake
I walk the line I walk it straight
But the morning so many miles away
Good God now

So take your hands off me
Tonight I'm breaking free
This is the night
This is the night
So take your hands off me
Tonight I'm breaking free
This is the night
This is the night
This is the night (This is the night)
This is the night
Oh yeah
This is the night
All right
This is the night
This is the night
