In the dark when your mind runs free
There is a light what's to be you'll see
You say your prayer but your eyes are full of fright
You walk alone in the sunlit street
But close your eyes to the moonlight scene
You dream your dreams til' your clock tells you it's light
Oooh no, the nightmare soon descends
You don't know, it might just mean the end
You sleep til' the morning light
You've been taught to fear the night
You play safe inhelit fright
But you don't have to fear the night
You cry out loud for your soul to keep
But there's a light to an endless street
You know the rest where it's done all the time
Deep in the earth where the Sun don't shine
You hear the night through the dead grapevine
You're all asleep cause your soul begins to cry
You sleep til' the morning light
You've been taught to fear the night
You play safe inhelit fright
But you don't have to fear the night
