Darkness sets outside, a shadow dances frightened on the bedroom wall 
It's quiet outside, soon the time is right 
Carefully out of bed, slips into a skintight silky dress 
Red lips kiss in the mirror, harbouring the sadness in her eyes 
One sip from the bottle hidden behind the books in the shelf 

Pushing down the handle, the door slides open wide 
Cautiously moving down the hallway, don't make any sound 
Finally out in the night, the air is warm and clear 
slight breath sweeps through the treetops in a moonlight serenade 

No look back, no chance to turn away this time 
She lights a cigarette and walks away from home 
 [bad word] through the emptiness of a sleeping town 
few dreamless strolling in the dancing streetlights 
Butterflies swarming the inside with shivers divine 
Almost there, she stops to catch her breath 
She straightens the dress one hand through the hair 
Her eyes detecting their under bridge rendezvous 

Minutes pass by, she's alone 
He is nowhere in sight, loneliness lingering back 
Hours goes by and love once more lost 
In this corner of the world cold and empty 

On one of the loneliest nights he came from out of a dream 
Embraced and in a moment all pain went away 
dreamtime tied to a faded reality and for a while it all just seemed to flow 
 [bad word] through the emptiness of a sleeping town 
few dreamless strolling in the dancing streetlights 
Butterflies swarming the inside with shivers divine 
Almost there, she stops to catch her breath 
She straightens the dress one hand through the hair 
Her eyes detecting their under bridge rendezvous
