[Verse 1]

Sittin' on the bed, I turn and look at the wall

Something's movin' and I wonder if it'll come if I call

In the shadows, something beckons to me

To steal me away, that I might see

[Refrain]

In the half-light, I rise

To the shape that draws my eye

Eclipse my sight

As it fades into the night

[Verse 2]

Outside the dark is so clear that it calls

Me from yellow presses and grimy walls

Now I turn and look away

And so the night makes its escape

[Refrain]

Yet long after it has gone

Still it leads me on

Sitting deep inside

Unseen behind my eyes
