Night After Night
[Verse 1]
In another century
You could've gone to a masquerade
In the courtyard of a vast palace
Hiding your form beneath voluminous skirts
And your face behind a jeweled mask
[Pre-Chorus]
You did the next best thing
A party at an art gallery
The mask was the same
But your body was much more exposed
[Chorus]
In the deep blue light
Everyone could see what was happening to you
But nobody knew who you were
[Verse 2]
Someone heard you laughing nervously
From across the room
A golden mask covered most of his face
But thе gleam in his eye was plainly visiblе
And, somehow, you knew
That he'd remember your laugh as a flirtatious one
[Outro]
Night after night
He would revisit this moment
Rewriting the scene
And slowly revealing your face
