The Music of the Night Songtext
von José Carreras

Nighttime sharpens, heightens each sensation
Darkness stirs and wakes imagination
Silently the senses abandon their defenses
Helpless to resist the notes I write
For I compose the music of the night
Slowly, gently, night unfurls its splendor
Grasp it, sense it, tremulous and tender
Hearing is believing, music is deceiving
Hardest light makes softest candlelight
Dare you trust the music of the night?
Close your eyes, for your eyes will only tell the truth
And the truth isn′t what you want to see
In the dark it is easy to pretend
That the truth isn't what you thought to be
Softly, deftly, music shall caress you
Hear it, feel it, secretly possess you Open up your mind, let your fantasies unwind
In this darkness which you know you cannot fight
The darkness of the music of the night
Let your mind start a journey through a strange new world
Leave all thoughts of the world you knew before
Let your soul take you where you long to be
Only then can you belong to me
Floating, falling, sweet intoxication
Touch me, trust me, savor each sensation
Let your dream begin, let your darker side give in
To the power of the music that I write
The power of the music of the night
Let your dream begin, let your darker side give in
To the power of the music that I write
Help me make the music of the night
