Shame on the night
For places I've been
And what I've seen
For giving me the strangest dreams

But you never really know just what they mean
So oh shame on the night

Shame on you
You've stolen the day
Snatched it away
But I saw the sky
An I never want to die

Now you know the reason why
Oh shame on the night

You don't care what you've done
So I think I'd better run
Shame on the sun
For the light you sold
I've lost my hold
On the magic flame
But now I know your name

Oh lord just go the way you came again
Oh shame on the night
You don't care what you've done
So I know I'd better run

Shame on the night
For places I've been
And what I've seen
For giving me the strangest dreams

But you never really know just what they mean
So oh shame on the night

You don't care what you've done
Here I go I've got to run
