I Love the Night

That night her kiss told me it was over I walked out late into the dark The misty gloom seems to soak up my sorrow The further I went on I felt a spreading calm Then suddenly my eyes were bathed in a light And the lovely lady in white was by my side She said "Like me I see you're walking alone Won't you please stay?" I couldn't look away She said I love the night The day is OK and the sun can be fun But I live to see those rays slip away I love the night There's so much I can show and give to you If you will welcome me tonight If only you had been there my dear We could have shared this together No mortal was meant to see such wonder One look in the mirror told me so Come darkness I'll see her again Yes I'm gonna go 'cause now I know She said I love the night The day is OK and the sun can be fun But I live to see those rays slip away I love the night There's so much that I can show and give to you If you will welcome me tonight If only you had been there my dear We could have shared this together
