Thief in the Night Songtext
von Colosseum

Thief in the night

The smile that you fake
Turns wrinckled in the side
The paths that you take
Always slip and slide

No more of your twisted
And your cheap scade scams
So much has gone missin'
Makes you (a)shamed to call yourself a man

You used to be sugar
But you've gon real sour on me
Now you're finger is on the trigger
It's a fantasy!

The angel that you drive
Is one another's dreams
The eagle that you ride
You don't know where it's been


The danger that you crave
It's getting out of sight
You ain't "the home of the brave" no: you're just a thief in the night

The plans that you brew
Make the echos mold
They've been known that a few
I won't be coming home

Ain't no use complaining
'Bout that import scan
I can't see you constraining
To put it back inside the bank

You're gonna be crashin'
Somewhere down the lonely street
The check should be cashing
Up on a locker you're off your feet

The angel that you drive
Is one another's dreams
The eagle that you ride
You don't know where it's been


The danger that you crave
It's getting out of sights
You ain't "the home of the brave"
Just a thief in the night

You're gonna be crashin'
Somewhere down the lonely street
The check should be cashing
Up on a locker you're off your feet

The talk that you seek
Ain't looking for a fight
No saver of the meek
Just a thief in the night

The angel that you drive
Is one another's dreams
The eagle that you ride
You don't know where it's been

The danger that you crave
It's getting out of sight
You ain't "the home of the brave" Just a thief in the night

A thief in the night
