The sound of midnight
Rings out on the cobbles
The moon has an iron knee
The night will be long
In the streetlight
Colder by the feet
The rain begins to fall
Now the wind
Every streetlamp seems to leave
In every alleyway
Everything seems to be alive
And the dusk now slips away
I'm afraid I must wait for the sunrise
Now the monsters slide on the black stones
Tonight will stay in memory
Now I must pray for the new day (yeah)
When the grey bells will ring
I can hear the drip
Of water on cobbles
Unholy theater
I'm smiling alone
In the moonlight
Condemned to wander
While families sleep in shadow
Every streetlamp seems to leave
In every alleyway
Everything seems to be alive
And the dusk now slips away
I'm afraid I must wait for the sunrise
Now the monsters slide on the black stones
Tonight will stay in memory
Now I must pray for the new day (yeah)
When the grey bells will ring
Midnight light is heating the pavement
And the big moon is losing memory
A silence playing with the rain
In a royal mind with castles in the air
Now the monsters slide on the black stones
Tonight will stay in memory
Now I must pray for the new day (yeah)
When the grey bells will ring
