Lyrics

` Children of the Night


Verse 1: Love that blosoms and shines will light the darkest times

And soften hearts and open minds

Beloved child of night so deep

Like a flower the child reaches as it grows

For light...the only thing it really knows

The light of love will rouse you from your sleep


Verse 2: There are those who say “Love has lost its way

And beauty will not ever see the light of day

And evil madness holds the winning hand”

Don't believe it. Don't despair. Don't be convinced you shouldn't care

Life is love and love is everywhere

And beauty shines to help you understand


Bridge: Thieves who see the darkness as their chance for gain

Amass their plunder from another's pain

And with their brethren reap a strange delight

They'll be sleeping tight when dawn turns into light of day

And opens up your eyes to see the way

Children of the night
