 Oh, the night  is my world
 City light  painted girl
 In the day  nothing matters
 It's the night  time that flatters
 In the night, no control
 Through the wall something's breaking
 Wearing white as you're walkin'
 Down the street of my soul
You  take my self, you take my self  control
You  got me livin' only for  the night
Before  the morning comes, the story's  told
You  take my self, you take my self  control
 Another night, another day goes by
 I never stop myself to wonder why
 You help me to forget to play my role
 You take my self, you take my self control
I,  I live  among the creatures of the night
 I haven't  got the will to try and fight
 Against  a new tomorrow, so I guess  I'll just believe it
 That tomorrow  never comes
 A safe night, I'm living in the forest of my dream
 I know the night is not as it would seem
 I must believe in something, so I'll make myself believe it
 That this night will never go
 Oh-oh-oh,  oh-oh-oh,  oh-oh-oh,  oh-oh-oh
 Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh
 Oh, the night is my world
 City light painted girl
 In the day nothing matters
 It's the night time that flatters
 I, I live among the creatures of the night
 I haven't got the will to try and fight
 Against a new tomorrow, so I guess I'll just believe it
 That tomorrow never knows
 A safe night, I'm living in the forest of a dream
 I know the night is not as it would seem
 I must believe in something, so I'll make myself believe it
 That this night will never go
 Oh-oh-oh,  oh-oh-oh,  oh-oh-oh,  oh-oh-oh,  oh-oh-oh
 You take my self, you take my self control
 You take my self, you take my self control
 You take my self, you take my self control
