Beauty of the night
Street light dances
across my skin
as i sit under the light
and watch the night
Wolfs howl
and come closer
foxes sneak
up on me
as they hunt
Such beauty
in the night,
in the hunt
I lay back
upon the sidewalk
and laugh
it's midnight
and it's time to play
I feel free
as the night
embraces me
darkness brushes
my skin
Nothing can compare
to the beauty of the night
to the freedom
that comes with
darkness
So, I lay down
and just feel
the night
against me
All I do
is watch
the night
dance and shimmer
across my skin
as i sit under the light
and watch the night
Wolfs howl
and come closer
foxes sneak
up on me
as they hunt
Such beauty
in the night,
in the hunt
I lay back
upon the sidewalk
and laugh
it's midnight
and it's time to play
I feel free
as the night
embraces me
darkness brushes
my skin
Nothing can compare
to the beauty of the night
to the freedom
that comes with
darkness
So, I lay down
and just feel
the night
against me
All I do
is watch
the night
dance and shimmer
