| The donkey is a-drinkin' all the moonlight from the water
|
| While the angel and the ox and the fox take a wander
|
| Through the world at night
|
| The world at night
|
| The sleepy truck driver parked his truck down beside
|
| The little hill near the mill where the road’s a little wider
|
| In the world at night
|
| The world at night
|
| Oh gee, the moon’s up in a tree
|
| And man, it’s hard to see what’s next for me
|
| Then I see fireflies go by
|
| Like candy in my eye
|
| And I remember why
|
| Oh, I love the world at night
|
| And gee, is that you whispering to me?
|
| Well I know I shouldn’t believe what I can’t see
|
| But oh my, with each flicker in the sky
|
| A ghost goes ghosting by
|
| And that is why
|
| Oh, I love the world at night |
