Child of the Night

I wanna be there to see the sunrise
So hold me again under the moonlit sky

I've been wandering, I've been drifting away
I've been struggling, reaching out for help
Oh, please, make this pain go away, mm
When the night seems so long, how can I hold on?
Just bring me the dawn, or I'll be dead and gone
Oh, please, let the morning come

I wanna be there to see the sunrise
So hold me again under the moonlit sky
I'll never give in, I'll never back down
I don't wanna fall into the cold hard ground
I wanna look into the horizon
I'm turning away from all these dark red skies
I'll never give in, I'll never back down, no, yeah
I'm just a child of the night (child of the night)

Now the darkness unfolds, and the devils deceived me
My hands are tied up, and the angels betrayed me
Oh please, won't someone rescue me? Oh
I'm a child of the night, there's no end to this fight
Into this I was born, I am tattered and torn
Oh, please, won't someone rescue me? Yeah

I wanna be there to see the sunrise
So hold me again under the moonlit sky
I'll never give in, I'll never back down
I don't wanna fall into the cold hard ground
I wanna look into the horizon
I'm turning away from all these dark red skies
I'll never give in, I'll never back down, no
Come save me, unfold me, embrace me

I wanna be there, so hold me again
I wanna be there to see the sunrise
So hold me again, just a child of the night
I wanna be there, just a child of the night
I'll never back down, no

I wanna be there to see the sunrise
So hold me again under the moonlit sky
I'll never give in, I'll never back down (I'll never back down)
I don't wanna fall into the cold hard ground
I wanna look into the horizon
I'm turning away from all these dark red skies
I'll never give in, I'll never back down, no, yeah

Yeah! I wanna look into the horizon
I'm turning away from all these dark red skies
I'll never give in, I'm just a child of the night
