Music Of The Night Lyrics

Night time sharpens, heightens each sensation

Darkness stirs and wakes imaginationSilently the senses abandon their defensesHelpless to resist the notes writeThe power of the music of the night

Slowly, gently night unfurls its splendor!rasp it, sense it, tremulous and tenderTurn your face away from the garish light of dayTurn your thoughts away from cold unfeeling light

"nd listen to the music of the night

#lose your eyes and surrender to your darkest dreams$urge your thoughts of the life you knew before#lose your eyes, let your spirit start to soar

"nd you%ll li&e as you%&e ne&er li&ed before

Softly, deftly, music shall caress youhear it, feel it, secretly possess youOpen up your mind, let your fantasies unwindn this darkness which you know you cannot fight

The darkness of the music of the night

Let your mind start a 'ourney to a strange new worldLea&e all thoughts of the life you knew beforeLet your soul take you where you long to beOnly then can you belong to me

(loating, falling, sweet into)icationTouch me, trust me, sa&or each sensationLet the dream begin, let your darker side gi&e in

To the power of the music that writeThe power of the music of the night

*ou alone can make my song take flightHelp me make the music of the night

Think Of Me Lyrics

Think of me, think of me fondly+hen we%&e said goodbye-emember me once in a while$lease promise me, you will try

+hen you%ll find that once again you longTo take your heart back and be freef you%ll e&er find a momentSpare a thought for me

+e ne&er said our lo&e was e&ergreenOr as unchanging as the sea0ut if you can still rememberStop and think of me

Think of all the things+e%&e shared and seenDon%t think about the wayThings might ha&e been

Think of me, think of me wakingSilent and resignedmagine me trying too hardTo put you from my mind

-ecall those days, look back on all those timesThink of those things we%ll ne&er doThere will ne&er be a day+hen won%t think of you

Long ago, it seems so long agoHow young and innocent we were

She may not remember me0ut remember her

(lowers fade, the fruits of summer fadeThey ha&e their seasons, so do we

0ut please promise me that sometimes*ou will think of me
