Andrew Lloyd Webber - Music If The Night

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 night-
and listen to
the music of the night...

Close your eyes
and surrender to your
darkest dreams!
Purge your thoughts
of the life
you knew before!
Close your eyes,
let your spirit
start the soar!
And you´ll live
as you´ve never
lived before... Softly, deftly,
music shall surround you...
Feel it, hear it,
closing in around 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
long to be!
Only then
can you belong
ot me...

Floating, falling,
sweet intoxication!
Touch me, trust me,
savour each sensation!
Let your 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...
