Stranger in the Night

The moon is shy behind the veil of clouds

The streetlights hum their lonesome tune

Your shadow lingers where my heart allows

A whisper in the dark

A spark without a flame

Stranger in the night

Where do you go

Dancing through the fog

A silhouette aglow

Stranger in the night

You’re pulling me close

But vanish when the dawn starts to show

Your footsteps echo like a haunted refrain

A mystery carved in the cool night air

I chase but lose you in the endless terrain

The stars don’t reveal

The secrets you conceal

Stranger in the night

Where do you go

Dancing through the fog

A silhouette aglow

Stranger in the night

You’re pulling me close

But vanish when the dawn starts to show
