LYRICS:
Over the sea
Moon´s shining bright on it´s way
To clear the black night
Witness of the fight
You got the power on me
I´ll be fighting forever
You cast the spell on me
Why don´t you let me go ?
No no no no
No!
New day will dawn
For me and for you carry on
Black night is gone
Look what we have done
I got the power on you
We´ll be fighting forever
I cast the spell on you
Never let you go
No no no no
No !!
I got the power on you
We´ll be fighting forever
I cast the spell on you
Never let you go
No no no no
No !!
Black night,
Allright
Black night
