Music of the night

Music of the night - John Owen-Jones

Written by：Andrew Lloyd Webber/Charles Hart/Richard Stilgoe

Night time sharpens

Heightens each sensation

Darkness stirs

And wakes imagination

Silently the senses

Abandon their defences

Slowly gently

Night unfurls its splendour

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 dreams

Let your thoughts of 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 congess you

Hear it feel it

Secret to live process 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

Let your mind start a journey through a strange new world

Leave all thoughts of the world you knew before

Let your soul take you where you want to be

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 fly

Help me make

The music of the night
