In the Heart of the Night

Walking amongst the shadows In the heart of the night A fall rain, in summer heat Caresses thoughts of bygone times In the heart of the night It’s a full moon, shining upon my face I walk into the mists of rain I become a mask, so you see not the pain I whisper to anyone close This is the last chance to dance In the heart of the night If you were here, hug me tight The dawn is approaching And a life time of waiting City streets wet with rain In the heart of the night In the south, of Belles so nice I am reminded of you In the heart of the night New Orleans is full of light I have waited so long For love to knock me down Changing seasons bring me the blues In the cool fall rains I dream of you In the heart of the night Inspired by a Canadian band, feel free to guess!!!
