(M.SchenkerR. McAuley)
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 nig
