Lyrics The Ecstasy Of Flight (I Love The Night) - Chris De Burgh

The Ecstasy Of Flight (I Love The Night)

Come to my door, meet me at midnight,
I can’t wait anymore, and after midnight
We must head for the town,
Keep under cover till dawn
With a bagful of wine;
The night is alive, look in the shadows,
Because now is the time, out in the shadows,
To be somebody else, a complete transformation
From the someone we are in the day;
I hear a noise — there is something going on;
I hear a voice — there is something going on;
I see the boys — there is something going on;
And something is happening to me, yea;
I love the night, I love the night,
I love the element of danger and the ecstasy of flight,
I love the night, I love the night,
I love to dance with a stranger and feel her delight,
And when the dancing is through, I kick off my shoes,
And I listen to the beating of my heart…
After the fall, then came the hunger
In the hearts of us all, ooh such a hunger
That begins after dark, hides in the heart
Like a wolf that is waiting inside;
I see a light — there is something going on;
It’s getting bright — there is something going on;
I look outside — there is something going on;
And someone is calling to me;
I love the night, I love the night,
I love the element of danger and the ecstasy of flight,
I love the night, I love the night,
I love to be with a stranger and feel her delight,
And when the morning begins, I have to get in Before sunlight can fall upon my face;
I love the night, I love the night,
I love the element of danger and the ecstasy of flight,
I love the night, I love the night,
