Slowly over the ocean
To starry-starry night
I come back to your dreams
I'm your nightmare fiend
Drawing the life
Drawing the hope
Drawing the light
Stealing the glow from you
I try not to take you
Time and time again
But you're the one I'm dreaming of
In your dreams you're fast asleep
Can't control your precious thoughts
I'm here and I'm the demon
Red light in my eyes, see
I don't feel anything at all...
I try not to take you (Close your eyes and you're damned)
Time and time again (you never even see what I am)
But you're the one I am dreaming of (You never see the knife descend)
In a dream that you dream in a dream (And I cannot reach you, I cannot stop him)
In your dream you're fast asleep (The demon light spins 'round and 'round)
Can't control your precious thoughts (A light house telling you which way)
I am here, and I'm the demon (You obey, you trust him)
Red light in my eyes, see (oooh)
Who's that bad man? (The demon light spins around and around)
Who's the bad guy now? (A light house telling you which way to go)
Who's that bad man? (You obey, you trust him)
Who's gone away?
Who's gone away from you?
Who's gone away?
Who's gone away from you now?
Oooh
