the arms of night

Lyrics

the things people do looking for understanding, defy understanding, if only they knew where the love they seek, is truly to be found, into the arms of night with their dreams held tight, in their endless flight through the failing light, the places you go thinking that love may find you, when love is behind you, it's all you can do to let the angels, find their own way home, into the arms of night with your endless fright, with your face alight and your prey in sight, into the breach in search of the new, though after so many times, you will have betrayed that too, into the arms of night with your endless fright, with your eyes all bright and your prey in sight, into the arms of somebody new, until that's no longer so, and you are no longer true
