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
