01. Nightmare

(Where were you in the night)
(Where were you in the night)

As the night closes in I lay in my bed
Since you went away it's been driving me mad
I stand in my room I can't the light
I wish you were here I'm lonely at night

I'm caught in a nightmare
Alone in the night
(Where were you) I was caught in a nightmare
(Where were you) Alone in the night
(Where were you) I was caught in a nightmare
(Where were you) Alone in the night

I was caught on the inside I'm afraid of the night
That my nightmare begin where reality ends
I won't sleep tonight my head's spinning 'round
I'm alone in a crowd I wait for the dark
For my nightmare to start I'm lonely at night
Don't leave me this way

I'm caught in a nightmare
Alone in the night
(Where were you) I was caught in a nightmare
(Where were you) I was alone in the night
(Where were you) I was caught in a nightmare
(Where were you) Alone in the night

(Where were you) I was caught in a nightmare
(Where were you) Alone in the night
(Where were you) Here where you found me
(Where were you) Alone in the night

(Don't walk away) Don't leave me this way
(Don't leave me this way) Don't walk away
(Where were you in the night) Alone in the night
(Where were you) Don't leave me, no
(In the night) Don't walk away
(Where were you in the night)

02. Midas Touch

See the man in the bookshop
See his withered hand
He walks very slowly never stands in crowds
Children stand and wonder as he turns and walks away
Closely guards the secret
Of the beauty in his eyes

He's the man with the Midas touch
He'll make you burn with just one look
He's the man with the Midas touch
He's got the beauty in his eyes

He looks so innocent
As he shuffles down the street
But he is the holy sentinel
That guards the gates of Hades
To stop the Lord Of Darkness
Coming straight from hell
The bringer of disaster
The one who tolls the bell

He's the man with the Midas touch
He'll make you burn with just one look
He's the man with the Midas touch
He's got the beauty in his eyes

Until the final conflict
He has to walk the earth
To do his master's bidding
And stop the evil force
He waits for Armageddon
The Nazarene will come
Rising from the ashes
Of the fallen world

He's the man with the Midas touch
He'll make you burn with just one look
He's the man with the Midas touch
He's got the beauty in his eyes

03. 747 (Strangers In The Night)

We got a 747 coming down in the night There's a 747 goin' into the night
There's no power, there's no runway lights There's no power they don't know why
Radio operator try to get a message through They've no fuel they gotta land soon
Tell the flight deck New York has no lights They can't land by the light of the moon
There's no power, what do we do They're overshooting there's no guiding lights
A 747 coming down in the night Set a course into the night
Try to get a message through Scandinavian 101
For Gods sake get your ground lights on
We were strangers in the night
Both on separate flights We were strangers in the night
Strangers in the night Lost on separate flights
Going nowhere Strangers in the night
We were strangers in the night Going nowhere
Both on separate flights We were strangers in the night
Strangers in the night Lost on separate flights
Going nowhere Strangers in the night
Going nowhere
This is Scandinavian 101
Flight from Hawaii coming out of the sun Strangers in the night
Kennedy, you should be in sight We were strangers in the night
We can't see a thing here in the night Strangers in the night
Navigator says we're on the flight path We were strangers in the night
There's no radio, no sign of life Strangers in the night
This is Scandinavian 101 Both on separate flights
For Gods sake get the ground lights on Strangers in the night
Going nowhere
'Cause we were strangers in the night We were strangers in the night
Both on separate flights Flight 101
Strangers in the night Strangers in the night going nowhere
Going nowhere
We were strangers in the night
Both on separate flights
Strangers in the night
Going nowhere
