Lyrics
When all is dark and there’s no light

Lost in the deepest star of night

I see you

Your hands are shaking baby

You ain’t been sleeping lately

There’s something out there

And it don’t seem very friendly does it?

If I could help you I would help ya

But it’s difficult

There’s something much more powerful

Than both of us possessing me

I’ve got to get to grips

I don’t want to feel like this

Your voice keeps haunting me

I cannot eat or sleep

I’m going crazy in this hazy fantasy

You put a spell on me

Aw but I ain’t going down at all

So take your hands off me

Tonight I’m breaking free

This is the night

This is the night

So take your hands off me

Tonight I’m breaking free

This is the night

This is the night

There was a time

I would have walked on burning coals for you

Sailed across the ocean blue

Climbed the highest mountain

Just to call your name

The moon throws down its light

And cuts me to the quick tonight

The change is in the air

And nothing will ever be the same

You still look good to me

Oh but you're no good for me

I close my eyes

And squeeze you from my consciousness

And in the morning when I wake

I walk the line I walk it straight

But the morning so many miles away

Good God now

So take your hands off me

Tonight I'm breaking free

This is the night

This is the night

So take your hands off me

Tonight I'm breaking free

This is the night

This is the night

This is the night (This is the night)

This is the night

Oh yeah

This is the night

All right

This is the night

This is the night
