(Ooh-wee, ooh-wee, ooh-wa!) See them fighting for power (ooh-wee, ooh-wee, ooh-wa!), But they know not the hour (ooh-wee, ooh-wee, ooh-wa!),; So they bribing with their guns, spare-parts and money, Trying to belittle our Integrity now. They say what we know Is just what they teach us; And we’re so ignorant ’Cause every time they can reach us (shoobe, doo-wa) Through political strategy (shoo-be, doo-wa); They keep us hungry (shoobe, doo-wa), And when you gonna get some food (shoobe, doo-wa), Your brother got to be your enemy, we-e-ell!
Ambush in the night, All guns aiming at me; Ambush in the night, They opened fire on me now. Ambush in the night, Protected by His Majesty. Ooh-wee, ooh-wee. Ooh-wa-ooh! (Ooh-wee) Ooh-wee, ooh-wee (ooh-wa), Ooh-wa! Ooh-wee, ooh-wee, ooh wa-ooh! Ooh-wee, ooh-wee, ooh wa-ah!
Well, what we know Is not what they tell us; We’re not ignorant, I mean it, And they just cannot touch us; Through the powers of the Most-I (shoobe, doo-wa), We keep on surfacin’ (shoobe, doo-wa); Thru the powers of the Most-I (shoobe, doo-wa), We keep on survivin’.
Yeah, this ambush in the night Planned by society; Ambush in the night; They tryin’ to conquer me; Ambush in the night Anyt’ing money can bring; Ambush in the night Planned by society; Ambush in the night
Great is Your love and Your faithfulness It’s Your faithfulness that carries me Many times I’ve run away Forsook Your love and all Your grace Still You call out my name Yeah, You still care that I be saved
So I’ll sing the glories of Your name Your awesomeness I will proclaim Until You come, until You come and…
Take Your bride away Like a thief in the night Like a thief in the night You’ll take us away There is no one that can fill this void Like You fill this void in my heart My life is just a human one But You pick me up and call me son Speak, Lord, I am listening Yes, Your child will serve faithfully
Divided we stand in light of a frozen sun Cursing the gods we have become We steal the fire from a sacred heart And bleed the wine unholy We fall in love with the serpent′s song And fear nothing
In the nightside of eden We′re born again Dead Forever we are Forever we′ve been Forever we′ll be crucified to a dream The nightside of eden
Deranged, we′re tearing away the petals of desire Learning the mathematics of evil by heart We decieve ourselves to start a war Within the realm of senses And descend to the circle number four Where we are nothing
In the nightside of eden We′re born again Dead Forever we are Forever we′ve been Forever we′ll be crucified to a dream The nightside of eden
In the nightside of eden We′re born again Dead Forever we are Forever we′ve been Forever we′ll be crucified to a dream The nightside of eden Forever we are Forever we′ve been Forever we′ll be crucified to a dream The nightside of eden
Forever we are Forever we′ve been Forever we′ll be crucified to a dream
Strangers in the night exchanging glances Wond′ring in the night What were the chances we′d be sharing love Before the night was through.
Something in your eyes was so inviting, Something in your smile was so exciting, Something in my heart, Told me I must have you.
Strangers in the night, two lonely people We were strangers in the night Up to the moment When we said our first hello. Little did we know Love was just a glance away, A warm embracing dance away and -
Ever since that night we′ve been together. Lovers at first sight, in love forever. It turned out so right, For strangers in the night.
(Instrumental Break)
Love was just a glance away, A warm embracing dance away.
Ever since that night we′ve been together. Lovers at first sight, in love forever. It turned out so right, For strangers in the night.
In the city, the day is too hot And you′re hoping for relief, ′cuz your head is filled with pain, But you get no relief, ′cuz the night is the same... In the night, in the night you see through jaded eyes. In the night, in the night you feel barely alive. You live your life in darkness, you′ve got pennies on your eyes. But you say that it′s all right, ′cuz you′ve never lived a lie, As you crawl back to your womblike existence in the night. In the night, in the night you see through jaded eyes. In the night, in the night you feel barely alive. You can′t see no light, but you hear those heavy footsteps, And the little man inside twists your tormented mind. Your mind is filled with shadows, your palms are wet with sweat. Limbs are bound and tangled in a fatal net. There are two things you can do. One is turn and fight. The other′s run headlong into the night. In the night, in the night you see through jaded eyes. In the night, in the night you feel barely alive. You can′t see no light, but you hear those heavy footsteps, And the breathing at your side, is it yours, or is it Good bye!
