Thousand Eyes Lyrics - Electric Light Orchestra

Chorus 

The night has a thousand eyes 

And they're all on you 

The night has a thousand ears 

Listening to your cries 

Let it work it's magic 

Let it work it's magic 

The night has a thousand eyes 

Verse 1 

You, you had to slip away 

After all that spark 

You, said all that you could say 

And slipped into the dark 

I could not let you go 

Alone into the night 

I had to let you know 

The magic there, in the night air 

Chorus 

The night has a thousand eyes 

And they're all on you 

The night has a thousand ears 

Listening to your cries 

Let it work it's magic 

Let it work it's magic 

The night has a thousand eyes 

Verse 2 

You, somewhere out in the dark 

Runs a wounded heart 

You, stumbling in the night 

In the air of after light 

You take along the fears 

Did you waste these years, 

And did they warn you 

Of the night zone all alone 

Sometimes it takes a fight 

To keep everything on track, 

And sometimes it takes a starry night 

To bring the magic back 

This was the time 

And this was the place 

With starlight on your face 

And the moon on the rise, 

The night has a thousand eyes
