Reclaim the Night Lyrics
[Chorus 1]
I've got to get you off my mind, I've got the world to see
I want to keep you out of sight, don't try to follow me
I've got to get you off my mind, I've got the world to see
Hide from the light, stay out of sight, live parallel with me
[Verse 1]
Is it the pull of the moon, beckoning?
I faced the weather in my second skin
I floated high on the tide, the current took me
In the eye of a storm, panic shook me
[Chorus 2]
I've got to get you off my mind, I've got the world to see
I was afraid, I ran away, don't try to follow me
[Verse 2]
The way he tells it, no, that wasn't everything
You hear a clumsy move, I see threatening
Don't want to see him, I don't want to see him
Do I have to justify the way I'm feeling? (No! No! No!)
[Bridge]
We walk the long way underneath a bright moon
Reclaim the night, don't lose another
And cross the street, hear someone close behind you
Turn day to night, stay under cover
His name's a warning, danger, exclamation
Reclaim the night, don't lose another
This time the world demands an explanation
Reclaim the night, don't lose another
Time after time, I see him in the crowd
He cast a shadow, changed the weather
And he's a footnote dropped in my biography
But I know he's your friend, whatever
[Outro]
So long, so long, so long
I reclaim the night
