Andrew Lloyd Weber – The Music Of The Night lyrics

Nighttime sharpens,
Heightens each sensation.
Darkness, stirs and wakes imagination.
Silently the senses abandon their defenses.


Slowly, gently
Night unfurls it's splendor.
Grasp it, sense it,
Tremulous and tender.
Turn your face away, from the garish light of day!
Turn your thoughts away from cold, unfeeling light.
And listen to the music of the night.


Close your eyes and surrender to your darkest dream!
Purge your thoughts of the life you knew before!
Close your eyes, let your spirit start to soar.
And you'll live, as you've never lived before.



Softly, deftly,
Music shall caress you.
Hear it, Feel it,
Secretly posses you.
Open up your mind, let your fantasies unwind,
In this darkness that you know you cannot fight,
The darkness of the music of the night.

Let your mind start a journey
Through a strange new world!
Leave all thoughts of the life you knew before!
Let your soul take you
Where you long to be!
Only then can you belong to me...

Floating, falling,
Sweet intoxication,
Touch me, trust me
Savor 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...
