Shadows fallin' on my face Every night she takes her place Oh! How I wonder The spell she puts me under Only neonlight, takes the place of daylight How broken hearted, when day and night are parted. She's not responsible Can't fight against his will Under his influence no hope far innocence We all run and hide from the shadow of the night [2x] With hopeless hands I pray For the safety of the day And if our world should depart Go with comfort in your heart Shadow shadow of the night Shadow of the night Under the cloud of darkness Where only money matters The knives are out tonight White powder glistens but who's gonna ask for more When someone falls and hits the floor? I feel the yearning of the early morning We all run and hide from the shadow of the night [2x] With hopeless hands I pray For the safety of the day And if our world should depart Go with comfort in your heart Shadow shadow of the night Shadow of the night As I wake to meet the dawn Communication has begun Oh! How I wonder, and is it any wonder When the neon light Takes the place of daylight Too late for miracles Just hope for common sense We all run and hide from the shadow of the night [2x] With hopeless hands I pray For the safety of the day And if our world should depart Go with comfort in your heart Shadow shadow of the night shadow of the night
