Afraid of the Night by Magnum (Band) Lyrics

[Verse 1]
So this is it
Maybe we’re finally here
Nothing will fit
Vision unclear
In your own room
Reading a book of your fears
Heavy perfume
Drowning in tears
Each one of us has some things
That we don’t admit

[Chorus]
You’re still afraid of the night
When you’re alone
You’re still afraid of the night
So far from home
All of your courage mislaid
So let it better be known
You’re still afraid of the night
Your cover’s blown
[Verse 2]
You hear a sound
Not just an ordinary noise
Don’t turn around
Open your eyes
You see it all
It’s just an endless parade
You hear the call
Black serenade
So just when the palace falls
You wake up in bed

[Chorus]
You’re still afraid of the night
When you’re alone
You’re still afraid of the night
So far from home
All of your courage mislaid
So let it better be known
You’re still afraid of the night
Your cover’s blown

[Bridge]
Deep, deep, you’re fast asleep
So tired, washed upon shore
Deep, deep, you’re fast asleep
So tired, you can’t ignore
[Chorus]
You’re still afraid of the night
When you’re alone
You’re still afraid of the night
So far from home
All of your courage mislaid
So let it better be known
You’re still afraid of the night
Your cover’s blown
