Fear of the Night Lyrics

A child all alone, lost in the dark
No one comforts him or hears his cries
Who will wipe away the tears
From this frightened child's eyes
Who's the desperate man who wait's in the light
And kneels behind the door, his face full of fright
What's this insanity?
They say no one is there
They call it phobia
His own nightmare
It's the fear of the night
Leaving you scared and lonely
It's the fear of the night
When no one else is there
Eerie cries and glowing eyes
That look at you and stares
Laughs and says terrible things
But you know no one is there
Now he's the crazy one who wait's till the dawn
And hides behind the door till the morning comes
What's this madness that grips his heart
Nocturnal obsession that's there in the dark
Can you tell me why you're so scared
It's just a feeling that you're not the only one
But what's the reason that you are afraid
It's just a feeling that you're not the only one
