[Music & Words: F. Doernberg]



I wear dark sunglasses at night

So I can walk around and hide

The pain that burns so deep inside

I wear dark sunglasses at night



I wear dark sunglasses at night

So I still pretend I'm doin' right

Although My faith and trust have died

I wear dark sunglasses at night



[chorus]



Livin' in the shade, my friend, is like swimming in the sand

I've spend my nights in the neon lights and there ain't no helpin' hand

Maybe now I've reach the end - and when I finally pass away

To take my glasses off - have a drink on me spread my ashes on a

windy day



[solo Eggi] [solo Ferdy]



I wear dark sunglasses at night

I show a smile and a lotta pride

While in my heart the demons fight

I wear dark sunglasses at night



I wear dark sunglasses at night

I did my best - Lord, how I tired

I shut my eyes now open wide

I wear dark sunglasses at night



[chorus]



Livin' in the shade, my friend, is like swimming in the sand

I've spend my nights in the neon lights and there ain't no helpin' hand

Maybe now I've reach the end - and when I finally pass away

To take my glasses off - have a drink on me spread my ashes on a

windy day



I wear dark sunglasses at night

Lost my only love on the other side

Maybe now she's some kinda devil's bride

I wear dark sunglasses at night



I wear dark sunglasses at night

So noone can see the tears I've cried

Maybe I should've booked another fligth

I wear dark sunglasses at night
