When the Night Comes

When I was six I played all day
And after it I dreamed away
That was good 'cause I was afraid of the night
From dusk till dawn I saw them fight
Skeletons and zombies with a creepy voice
I feared every shadow and every noise
I didn't know they are fantasy
So I hid under my blanket
And when the sun goes down
And the darkness fills the world
And when the lights go out
And the shadows rule the world
I become a craven, become a craven
And the monsters come again

Oh, when the night comes
Oh, when the night comes
Oh, when the night comes
Oh, when the night comes

But with the years I realized
There are no monsters I was surprised
I saw the night with other eyes
I saw owls and bats and fireflies
Lightning, moon and shooting star
Enlightened the deep blue sky bizarre
I didn't fear the night any longer
I raised my head and became even stronger
And when the sun goes down
And the darkness fills the world
And when the lights go out
And the shadows rule the world
I become a stranger, become a stranger
And curiosity awakes

Oh, when the night comes
Oh, when the night comes
Oh, when the night comes
Oh, when the night comes

Today I think the night is amazing
With block busters, party, disco and dancing
With playing guitar at bonfire light
Under glittering stars everything is alright
I don't want to waste that wonderful time
By believing in monsters and imagining crime
With my friends I will celebrate and play
At this special and exciting half of the day
And when the sun goes down
And the darkness fills the world
And when the lights go out
And the shadows rule the world
I become so happy, become so happy
And my friends will laugh with me

Oh, when the night comes
Oh, when the night comes
Oh, when the night comes
Oh, when the night comes
