Moonlit Masquerade

Slip into the moonlight, lace and velvet skin

The night wears a grin, let the masquerade begin

Every chandelier is trembling when you walk in the room

A secret in the shimmer, a rose in full bloom

I can taste the danger in the air tonight

Golden shadow dancing in the black light

Say my name like you mean it, don't you break the spell

One kiss at the threshold and I'll never tell

We slip into a midnight masquerade

Every smile hides a secret in the shade

Hearts beat loud in the glittering smoke

Whisper my lie like a beautiful joke

If not, let's go away, take me higher in the flames

Everybody's innocent until they know your name

Bikes are moving like a rumor through the crowd

Eyes behind the velvet, no one speaks too loud

Your hands are full of thunder, your laugh is made of sand

I can see the hidden door where the dark begins

I can feel the tension crawling up my spine

Sugar on the surface, poison in the wine

Sing my name like a warning, say it soft, say it slow

In this hall of mirrors, every secret wants to show

We′re slipping into a midnight masquerade

Of your smile hides a secret in the shades

Hearts beat loud round your glittering smoke

Whisper my lies like a purist I'll choke

Midnight neckerade take me higher in the flame

Everybody′s innocent until they know your name

For you now

Behind the mask, let it all come out

Spurs, close the deal

If the night is a weapon, then I'm made of steel

We′re steppin' into a midnight masquerade

Every smile hides a secret in the shades

Hearts deep now under glittery smoke

We′re sparing light like a beautiful joke

Midnight masquerade, let the chandeliers break

When the clock strikes twelve, nothing's fake

Where the shadows slang to breathe in

Velvet of the dark, that's where you'll find me
