The Night Stalker

On a cold, dark night
I saw you walking alone,
you could not see me
but I was there watching, waiting,
and taking my time.
You pulled out your keys,
I was close by and could hear the noise,
I could have touched you,
but I waited and watched.
You must have sensed something, you hurried
to get inside and be safe.
I could have taken you right then,
but I will have more chances,
the nights are always here,
and I live for each one of them.
You may never see me or you might,
that will be my choice,
I know you now,
I know where you go,
I know your habits.
I must feed my hunger,
and you are just one of many,
you will know me soon.
I am here, I am waiting for you...
I live for the nights.
