Summer Night City Lyrics
Soul dancing in the dark
Summer night city
Walking in the moonlight
Love-making in a park
Summer night city
I can't take it for too long
My impatience slowly creeping
Up my spine and growing strong
I know what's waiting there for me
Tonight I'm loose and fancy-free
I just know it's time to go
Can't resist the strange attraction
From that giant dynamo
Lots to take and lots to give
Time to breath and time to live
Soul dancing in the dark
Summer night city
Walking in the moonlight
Love-making in a park
Summer night city
Call it glitter
Somehow something turns me on
Some folks only see the litter
We don't miss them when they're gone
I love the feeling in the air
My kind of people everywhere
I just know it's time to go
Can't resist the strange attraction
From that giant dynamo
And tomorrow
When it's dawning
And the first birds start to sing
In the pale light of the morning
Nothing's worth remembering
It's a dream
It's out of reach
Scattered driftwood on the beach
Tonight I'm loose and fancy-free
I love the feeling in the air
My kind of people everywhere
I Love it, It's just one of those songs that urges you to sing to it. The music video is great as well, kind of eerie and uplifting . . . One minor correction if I may however, I've noticed that the chorus to Therions version actually goes:
Waiting for the Sunlight Soul dancing in the Summer Night City Walking in the Moonlight Love making in the Summer Night City
this song is a cover too, from ABBA, obviously this is better than the original, THERION RULEZ
Uhh . . . "Sunrise" is right though . . .
I agree with Tindalos. In the song it really goes
Soul dancing in the Summer Night City...
But I saw Therion few months ago at concert and when they sing in live show it is the original lyrics (soul dancing in the park...). Maybe it's just too quiet or something on this (CD) version so it's not heard.
Anyway, it is really great song and it's definitely my favourit by Therion. Any time I hear it I just can't help myself and I start to sing, no matter what people around me think^^ It was the last song they sang on their concert and it was truly amazing. I will never forget that=D
