[Verse 1: Neil DeGraide]
The moon gleams dimly
Whispers thinly
A crescent smile, the siren's wile
Ordained or wild?
The gambit of night

[Verse 2: Kate DeGraide]
The sun looms larger
A scolding father
His scornful light a sparkling blight
And scalding blithe
Oh where is the night?

[Verse 3: Neil DeGraide, Kate DeGraide, Neil & Kate DeGraide]
From the shade of trees
Pleading reverently
Questions posed, a quest betrothed
Through forest strewn cathedral tunes
A puzzled truth to mend in the night

[Verse 4: Neil DeGraide, Kate DeGraide, Neil & Kate DeGraide]
To the edge you've wandered
Drawn by this hunger
Beauty, pain - here one the same
Ransom or bane?
The gambit of night
[Instrumental Bridge]

[Outro: Kate DeGraide, Neil & Kate DeGraide]
Gambit of night
Gambit of night
