Lyrics[]

Hey, are you the one I dream about?
Baby, I am
I really feel the night can take away my doubt
I’ll try and do what I can

Every time I see you smile there is a sadness in your eyes
Well I’ve been hurt before
I know it’s nothing new and time will make you realise
We always wish for more

We find we’re searching high and low
And always looking for the right time
Together we can make it through the night

It’s the spirit of the night, spirit of the night
Burning like St. Elmo’s fire
Spirit of the night, takes our feelings so much higher

It’s the spirit of the night
(Spirit of the night, spirit of the night)
We can live our fantasy
Spirit of the night, burning in our ecstasy

Hey, are you the one to take my pain?
Just take my hand
I’ve been so hurt before, it’s hard to trust again (Trust again)
You know I understand

You’ve got me feeling right and I can see the future is bright
I’ll take your blues away

So no more searching high and low
And always looking for the right time (Right time)
Together we can make it through the night

It’s the spirit of the night, spirit of the night
Burning like St. Elmo’s fire
Spirit of the night, takes our feelings so much higher
Feed our deep desire

It’s the spirit of the night
(It’s a feeling, got me reeling)
We can live our fantasy

It’s the spirit of the night
(It’s a feeling, just a feeling)
Burning in our ecstasy

Time to celebrate our love
We’re caught in its ray of light
Calling to the world out loud
Just let our spirits fly

We can write another page
A golden age within our lifetime

It’s the spirit of the night (Spirit of the night)
It’s the spirit of the night
It’s the spirit of the night
Takes our feelings so much higher and higher

It’s the spirit of the night, spirit of the night
Burning in our ecstasy
Spirit of the night, we can live our fantasy
