Night is a woman who embraces me
I am never lonely in her arms
Deep in her heart I am free from harm
The moon and the stars are her ancient charms
She gives to me the gift of less to see
Night is a woman who embraces me
I know that she is stronger than the winter sun
She brings me to the places I am warm
She's on me like a blanket or a thunderstorm
And she waits for me when I am forlorn
Although she is much older we have just begun
I know that she is stronger than the winter sun
Night is a woman who embraces me
Her hair is dark and thick and it will tumble down
She dresses up her shadows in a flowing gown
And she's always welcome wen she hits this town
She is always everything she wants to be
Night is a woman who embraces me
Night is a woman who embraces me
She will reach me late and take my hand
Lead me to my dreams and back again
Then she'll run like a shiver from the land
She gives to me the gift of less to see
Night is a woman who embraces me
