guiding light

do i, do i, belong to the night, only, only, only tonight, all the ladies stay inside, time may freeze, a world could cry, all this night running loud, i hear the whispers, and i hear the shouts, and though they never cry for help, tell me who sends these, infamous gifts, to make such a promise, and make such a slip, oh no, can't pull a trick, never the rose without the prick, oh, but tell me how do i say, i woke up and it's yesterday, do i again face this night, guiding light, guiding light, guiding through these nights, darling, darling, do we part like the seas, the roaring shell, the drifting of the leaves, but all intent remains unknown, it's time to sit up, sit up in the throne, it's seen before, but it's always new, so look close and see who's come through, never again to face this night, guiding light, guiding light, guiding through these nights
