lyrics

Take back the night (Oh)
Take back the night
The night belongs to all of us
So take back the night

Take back the dark
He said relish the beauty of the dark
Sometimes what's done in the dark
Blesses you in the light
Take it back

Not afraid anymore
Not afraid of closet doors
Under the bed don't scare me no more
Because I'm takin back the night

There are treasures there in the dark
Diamonds there in the night
Walk in the dark
For just a little while,
And you'll see just how bright it was

Night's not just for sleeping
There's bright shining blessing in the dark

Dark is comfort
Dark is peace
There's joy right there waiting
In the dark

[Small musical break]

He said take back the night
hooooo
Take back the night

Many blessings wait in the night
So take back, take back, the night

Not afraid of the dark
No no no no no
Not afraid of the dark
no no no no no

Unafraid of what comes out at dusk
Under the bed don't scare me no more
Relish, relish the solemn of the dark

He said take baby,
take back the night
It belongs to all
And not just to some
So you take back the dark
Take back the dark

There's light
There's light
There's light in the dark

There's beauty-yeah
There's beauty-yeah
Beautiful treasures in the dark

[Break]

He said we come
From the darkness and light
He said we come from darkness and the light
You can't just cleave to the light side of you
There's beauty in the blackness of the night

There's truth
There's truth
There's truth in the dark

There's faith-yeah
There's faith-yeah
Have faith in the beauty of the dark

Take back the dark
Take back the dark
There's manifold blessing in loving the dark

Take back take back the night
