Electric Light Orchestra Ii - Thousand Eyes lyrics

Chorus The night has a thousand eyes And they're all on you The night has a thousand ears Listening to your cries Let it work its magic Let it work its magic The night has a thousand eyes Verse 1 You, you had to slip away After all that spark You, said all that you could say And slipped into the dark I could not let you go Alone into the night I had to let you know The magic there, in the night air Chorus The night has a thousand eyes And they're all on you The night has a thousand ears Listening to your cries Let it work its magic Let it work its magic The night has a thousand eyes Verse 2 You, somewhere out in the dark Runs a wounded heart You, stumbling in the night In the air of after light You take along the fears Did you waste these years And did they warn you Of the night zone all alone Sometimes it takes a fight To keep everything on track And sometimes it takes a starry night To bring the magic back This was the time And this was the place With starlight on your face And the moon on the rise The night has a thousand eyes
