The Music of the Night

Susan Boyle

Night time sharpens heightens each sensation

Darkness wakes and stirs imagination

Silently the senses abandon their defenses

Helpless to resist the notes I write

For I compose the music of the night

Slowly gently night unfurls it's splendour

Grasp it sense it tremulous and tender

Hearing is believing

Music is deceiving

Hard as lightning soft as candle light

Dare you trust the music of the night

Close your eyes for your eyes will only tell the truth

And the truth isn't what you want to see

In the dark it is easy to pretend

That the truth is what it ought to be

Softly deftly music shall caress you

Hear it feel it secretly possess you

Open up your mind let your fantasies unwind

In this darkness which you know you cannot fight

The darkness of the music of the night

Close your eyes start a journey through a strange

New world

Leave all thoughts of the world you knew before

Close your eyes and let music set you free

Only then can you belong to me

Floating falling sweet intoxication

Touch me trust me savour each sensation

Let the dream begin let your darker side give in

To the power of the music that I write

The power of the music of the night

You alone can make my song take flight

Help me make the music of the night
