Hear the night music playing? Don't you know what it's saying? We should feel it together Forever Feel the beat and just hold on To the sweet midnight flowing Feel the music inside you I'll be there too Now's the time our dreams are finally coming true Feels so good we're crying Now's the time when it's down to me and you Spread these wings, we'll be flying Don't you know what the night can do? Don't you know when it's touching you? Don't you know what the night can do? Time to show all your feeling All the night is revealing Let the rhythm enfold you Let me hold you Now we turn into music Now we will never lose it When the rhythm and night ride No heart can hide There are times that never ever come again Memories there for the making When the night calls, we better let it in All this love for the taking Don't you know what the night can do? Don't you know when it's touching you? Won't you help me to let it through? Don't you know what the night can do? Don't you know what the night can do? Know what the night can do? Don't you know what the night can do? Don't you know what the night can do? Know what the night can do? Don't you know what the night can do? There are times that never ever come again Memories there for the making When the night calls, we better let it in All this love for the taking Don't you know what the night can do? Don't you know when it's touching you? Won't you help me to let it through? Don't you know what the night can do? Don't you know what the night can do? Know what the night can do? Don't you know what the night can do? Don't you know what the night can do? Know what the night can do? Don't you know what the night can do? Don't you know what the night can do? Know what the night can do? Don't you know what the night can do?
