Lyrics

[00:40.55] The day is the wife whom I elude.
[00:43.42] The one to whom I should be right.
[00:46.27] Though forewarned by peers and kin
[00:49.00] I always give in to the night.
[00:51.90] Mother always warned me such,
[00:54.90] being a nocturnal soul
[00:57.90] Besides just being simply strange
[01:00.46] Spawns from some illness of the mind.
[01:03.40]
[01:03.76] But the Night,
[01:04.68] She calls me
[01:07.69] She calls me
[01:10.50] She calls me
[01:13.40] She calls me
[01:14.95] She sways in her velvet dress
[01:17.89] And pulls me towards her in the dark
[01:21.14] While the others rest
[01:24.32] While the others rest
[01:27.16] While the others rest
[01:31.33]
[01:41.39] Heed the call the time has come
[01:44.20] for you children of the Night
[01:47.12] Gather 'round like suckling dogs
[01:49.95] Mother's come she is the Night.
[01:52.85] Come with me to the other side.
[01:58.88] Make that girl in black your bride!
[02:01.90]
[02:04.38] But the Night,
[02:05.58] She calls me
[02:08.41] She calls me
[02:11.25] She calls me
[02:14.15] She calls me
[02:15.77] She sways in her velvet dress
[02:18.65] And pulls me towards her in the dark
[02:22.03] While the others rest
[02:24.99] While the others rest
[02:27.90] While the others rest
[02:32.75]
[03:19.59] It still seems very strange to me
[03:22.55] that her quiet, lonely streets
[03:25.59] draped in all their mystery
[03:28.02] could be so sweet and comforting
[03:30.60]
[03:30.99] But the Night,
[03:32.40] She calls me
[03:35.20] She calls me
[03:38.05] She calls me
[03:40.89] She calls me
[03:42.77] She sways in her velvet dress
[03:45.55] And pulls me toward her in the dark
[03:49.05] While the others rest
[03:51.91] While the others rest
[03:54.79] While the others rest
