Last night I slept oh so lightly 
kept hearing the strangest things 
now a murmur, now a faint force of lightning 
you know what the night brings 
and I know it's wrong 
guess I'm not that strong 
because 
Last night I... I met a stranger 
beyond all my wildest dreams 
though I could taste and feel the danger, I.... 
then I found myself in the garden 
leafy midnight's pale blue 
all I saw was what I thought was 
some acquaintance of mine 
I should be more strong 
and I know it's wrong 
because 
last night I... I met a stranger 
beyond all my wildest dreams 
though I could taste and feel the danger 
the chill in the night 
got the better of me 
this night I'll sleep oh so lightly 
and dream of the strangest things 
maybe a murmur, or a faint force of lightning 
where the wild things are... 
last night I... I met a stranger 
beyond all my wildest dreams 
though I could taste and feel the danger 
the chill in the thrill 
got the better of me 
(...say to me, dear stranger 
say you'll meet me here 
don't talk to me, don't you know 
I don't need to know your name...)
