He awakes in a cold sweat
From a lost and lonely dream
There was a lady with long dark hair
He doesn't know quite what it means

She was alluring, but so disturbing
He begins to quiver
Was like he knew her, like he'd been through her
Oh never never never

Ooh, she sets his heart on fire
Now this woman, that he desires

After a long day
He finally falls asleep
There was a lady with stone grey eyes
Into his dreams she starts to creep

Tossing an' turning, he feels a yearning
He begins to quiver
He wants to touch her, he wants so much of her
Forever

Ooh, she sets his heart on fire
Now this woman, that he desires
(She's the lady of the darkest night) darkes' night
(She'll take yer soul when the time is right)
(She's the lady of the darkest night) darkes' night
(She'll take your soul when the time is right)

All alone in a little room
On a Sunday afternoon
Oh suddenly the air turns cold
Oh yes he knows she's coming soon

He cannot see her, but he can feel her
He begins to quiver
A strange sensation, like detonation
Oh yeah

Ooh, she sets his heart on fire
Now this woman, that he desires
(She's the lady of the darkest night) darkes' night
(She'll take yer soul when the time is right)
(She's the lady of the darkest night) darkes' night
(She'll take your soul when the time is right)
(She's the lady of the darkest night) darkes' night
(She'll take yer soul when the time is right)
(She's the lady of the darkest night) darkes' night

Ooh
Oh, oh, oh-oh yeah
