They call me Mr Night And when you dance with me I turn your fantasies Into reality There ain't no way That you can save my soul But you can fire desires That stop me growing cold I got a private club And in the friendly dark Then you can look for love Or maybe try and make your mark And if you're sick Or out there on the run Then you can hide inside And maybe have yourself some fun I hear the streets rejoice I hear them cry in pain
They got a different voice For every drop of rain You can hear me howling 'Cause I'm hanging around Right outside your house After the sun goes down They call me Mr Night... I got these heavy shades That help me see the light But when the smile fades You might be out of sight You ask me how it is That I can be so black Well once I loved the day But she ain't never coming back They call me Mr Night...
