In The Night

(album: Chameleon - 1993)

[Words and Music by Michael Kiske]

In the night I'm calling you be my guide, help me through,
In the night i call your name you're the light in times of shame.
The songs I sing, all my love I bring for you.
I always try to make things better, everything that has gone wrong,
Mighty plans in the right direction but very little has been done.
Everyday when I try to get forward I find myself another mile back,
Help me fighting, help me breathing why am I falling down instead?
Every useful minute seems to be the thought of you,
Every hour seems like wasted, filled with things that I might do.
Without love in my reactions seems the saddest thing, but it's true.
In the night I'm calling you be my guide, help me through,
In the night i call your name you're the light in times of shame.
The songs I sing, all my love I bring for you.
[Acoustic Solo: Roland Grapow]
Free from ourselves and free form this world we may find,
The freedom we search, 'cause all that we need is inside.
The hours we waste we may not get back for a while,
And when it gets dark no chance will be there for a try.
When I wake up early in the morning I catch a book and jump inside,
I fill my head with a million wonders and try to fill the night with light.
The moment when I get things clearer I see another mountain to climb.
And always when I think I'm nearer I realize there is no time.
In the night I'm calling you be my guide, help me through,
In the night i call your name you're the light in times of shame.
Sometimes I cried after all I lied to you.
