The sound of midnight Rings out on the cobbles The moon has an eye on me The night will be long In the street light Caught up by the fear The rain begins to fall Now the wind Every street lamp seems to live In every alleyway, everything seems to be alive And the dusk now slips away I'm afraid, I must wait for the sunrise Now the monsters slide on the black stones Tonight will stay a memory Now I must pray for the new day When the great bells will ring I can hear the drip Of water on cobbles Unholy theatre I'm smiling alone In the moonlight Condemned to wander While families sleep A shadow Every street lamp seems to live In every alleyway, everything seems to be alive And the dusk now slips away I'm afraid, I must wait for the sunrise Now the monsters slide on the black stones Tonight will stay a memory Now I must pray for the new day When the great bells will ring Midnight light is hitting the pavement And the big moon is losing memory A silence playing with the rain In the Royal Mile with castles in the air Now the monsters slide on the black stones Tonight will stay a memory Now I must pray for the new day When the great bells will ring
