Nighttime sharpens, heightens each sensation. Darkness wakes and stir 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.
Hard as lightening, soft as candlelight. Dare you trust the Music of the Night? The Music of the Night The Phantom of the Opera I know I took the path that you would never want for me I know I let you down, didn't I? So many sleepless nights where you were waiting up on me
Well I'm just a slave unto the night I Bet My Life Imagine Dragons Do you ever feel like a plastic bag Drifting through the wind, wanting to start again? Do you ever feel, feel so paper thin Like a house of cards, one blow from caving in?
Do you ever feel already buried deep six feet under? Screams but no one seems to hear a thing Do you know that there's still a chance for you 'Cause there's a spark in you? You just gotta ignite the light and let it shine Just own the night like the 4th of July 'Cause, baby, you're a firework Come on, show 'em what you're worth
Make 'em go, "Aah, aah, aah" As you shoot across the sky-y-y Firework By Katy Perry Satellite in my eyes Like a diamond in the sky How I wonder
Satellite strung from the moon And the world your balloon Peeping Tom for the mother station Winter's cold spring erases And the calm away by the storm is chasing Everything good needs replacing Look up, look down all around, hey satellite Satellite
