Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Shining high above, light of love, darling just you and I
And a-here comes the night, how I thrill to your kiss
Music fills the air everywhere, nights of magic and bliss
Think of the moments, the hours and hours that we were apart
Moments and hours that kept bringing showers of tears to my heart
Whoah, whoah, whoah, whoah
Here comes the night, like the others before
But tonight's divine, you are mine, once more
Think of the moments, the hours and hours that we were apart
Moments and hours that kept bringing showers of tears to my heart
Whoah, whoah, whoah, whoah
And a-here comes the night, like the others before
But tonight's divine, you are mine, once more
And a-here
Here comes the night!
