I don't like taking walks at night
when the werewolves howl
and leave me in fright
and I know
that this is all imaginary
in this place only I can see

Take me away from lonely nights
where we can suddenly change everything
but for now we are just watching
the midnight carnival lights

one afternoon I was strolling about
when a traveler from afar
came stumbling on out
and he said
to turn around because it's not safe
it's not safe

earlier that day there was a forecast of rain
but I took my chances and went anyway
I took my chances anyway

Take me away from lonely nights
where we can suddenly change everything
but for now we are just watching
the carnival lights

Take me away from lonely nights
where we can suddenly change everything
but for now we are just watching
the festival lights
