Music of the Night

Michael Crawford Michael Crawford

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 composed the music of the night

Slowly, gently
Night unfurls its splendor
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
Deafening
Music shall caress you
Hear it
Feel it
Secretly posses 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
