Black Of Night
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I need light, I need light to find my way around this house
I'm turning on the chandelier
Nice bright light for me to see
Little footsteps coming from the hallway
Oh… No… The lights are flickering
Oh… No… The lights are out
In the black of night, oh it's so hard to see
In the black of night, I see the moon
In the black of night, oh the moon is full
Ha-ha… In the black of night, oh it's so hard to see
In the black of night, I see the moon
In the black of night, oh the moon is full
My black cat Magic
Mesmerized by something in the hallway
Who's to say what's living in the Darkness?
Who is to say if a black cat can sense it?
I need light, I need light to find my way around this house
Oh… There's a candle
Just a little light… So I can see again
Little footsteps coming from the hallway
Auu… Auu… Something hit me on the head
Auu… Auu… There it is again
In the black of night, oh it's so hard to see
In the black of night, I see the moon
In the black of night, oh the moon is full
In the black of night, oh it's so hard to see
