The sunset's rag is wringing

The night out of the day

The undercover lovers

Have run out of things to say

The singer's started singing

The strummers start to strum

The night is just beginning

For the vampires in the sun



Vampires in the sun...

The night is always young



The moon's a chunk of silver

The night is like a dress

You can hear the ice cubes jingle

Like a diamond on a breast

The waves make a languid crashing

And lick us like a tongue

And wash the ashen ankles

Of the vampires in the sun



Vampires in the sun...

The night is always young



The evening is undressing

And showing us her stars

The guilty are confessing

To the tenders of the bars

They're knocked out and nocturnal

They stay forever young

The moon it shines eternal

On the vampires in the sun



Vampires in the sun...

The night is always young
