Verse 1:
It’s the Emmagic Dhour in the Gmiddle of the Cpark
When it’s Emnot quite Ddaylight and Gnot quite Cdark
The Emedge of the Dwater is Gwhere it all Cstarts
We might Emnever get Dback here Cagain
Verse 2:
And Emtime stands Dstill in the Griver’s Carms
Sinking Emslowly Daway from the Glights of the Ccar
But Emwe see Deach other, we Gknow who we Care
Our Emsecret’s the Dstar of the Cshow
And Emdeeper and Ddeeper we Emgo
Chorus:
Come on Dopen your heart
The Emnight loves Dus and Cloves us as we Gare
EmOh, c’mon Dshow me your scars
The Emnight loves Dus and Cloves us as we Gare
The Emnight loves Dus and Cloves us as we Gare
Verse 3:
EmHere in the Dmoonlight it’s Geasy to Ctrace
The Emblue of my Dbruises, the Glines of your Cface
But Embeauty so Dtrue it should Gnot be Cerased
And Emburied for Dno one to Cknow
So Emdeeper and Ddeeper we Emgo
Chorus:
Come on Dopen your heart
The Emnight loves Dus and Cloves us as wGe are
EmOh, c’mon Dshow me your scars
The Emnight loves Dus and Cloves us as we Gare
The Emnight loves Dus and Cloves us as we Gare
The Emnight loves Dus and Cloves us as we Care
Solo
Verse 4:
Now every Emmagic Dhour between Gdaylight and Cdark
I Emstill feel the Dwater, I Gstill see the Cstars
For Emwe stole a Dmoment and Gtook it to Cheart
And it Embeats every Dturn in the Croad
So Emdeeper and Ddeeper we Emgo
Chorus:
Come on Dopen your heart
The Emnight loves Dus and Cloves us as we Gare
EmOh, c’mon Dshow me your scars
The Emnight loves Dus and Cloves us as we Gare
