Il Divo - Music Of 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 light -
and listen to the music of the night

Close your eyes and surrender to your dark nest dreams!
Purge your thoughts of the life you knew before!
Close your eyes, let your spirit start to soar!
And you'll live as you've never lived before

Softly, deftly,
music shall caress you
Hear it, feel it,
secretly posses you
Open up your mind,
let your fantasies unwind,
in this darkness that 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 light you knew before!
Let your soul take you where you long to be!
Only then can you belong to me

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

Let the 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

You alone can make my song take flight -
help me make the music of the night...
