D A G A
Nighttime sharpens, heightens each sensation
D A G A
Darkness stirs and wakes imagination
G D G D
Silently the senses abandon their defenses
G C G D
Helpless to resist the notes I write
Em A A7 D
For I compose the music of the night
D A D A
Slowly, gently, night unfurls its splendour
D A G A
Grasp it, sense it, tremulous and tender
G D G D
Hearing is believeing, music is deceiving
G C G D
Hot as lightening, soft as candlelight
Em A A7 D
Dare you trust the music of the night
C G F
Close you eyes for your eyes will only tell the truth
Bb E7
and the truth isn't what you want to see
A A7 D
In the dark it is easy to pretend
F#m C# F#
That the truth is what it ought to be
D A D A
Softly, deftly, music shall caress you
D A G A
Hear it, feel it, secretly possess you
G D G D
Open up your mind, let your fantasies unwind
G C G D
In this darkness which you know you cannot fight
Em A A7 D
The darkness of the music of the night
C G F
Close your eyes start a journey through a strange new world
Bb E7
Leave all thoughts of the world you knew before
A A7 D
Close your eyes and let music set you free
F#m C# F#
Only then can you belong to me
D A D A
Floating (floating), falling (falling), sweet intoxication
D A G A
Touch me (touch me), trust me (trust me), savour each sensation
G D G D
Let the dream begin, let your darker side give in
G C G D
To the power of the music that I write
Em A A7 D
The power of the music of the night....

G C G D
You and I can make my song take flight
Em A A7 G Em Ebm C# D
Help me make the music of the night.
(starts on "night")
Help me make the music of the night
