Blues Traveler The Children Of The Night Lyrics

The Children Of The Night Lyrics

We climb slowly out from under the rock

We were hiding

To greet the sun as it leaves the sky

On the cycle, it were riding



And we stand new

Beneath the blanket of stars

So vast it sways our stance



Swaying, we continue to rise

Until it becomes one outright dance



And the moon keeps watch as the howling grows

Into one single petal from a very different rose

And when we all get lost in

The throbbing throng's exhaustion



We actually touch those flickering lights

And give them something back

We are in fact the children of the night



A spark of smoke in the air

Commands the revelries I attend

It says, "Be not afraid beneath the heavens

For the evening is your friend"



And the moon keeps watch as the howling grows

Into one single petal from a very different rose

And when we all get lost in

The throbbing throng's exhaustion



We actually touch those flickering lights

And give them something back

We are in fact the children of the night
