Late already, the city's asleep
The night is ours, no words to speak
Underneath the fading light
We slip away into the night
As shadows grow, we feel the spark
In the stillness, we leave our mark
In the quiet streets, we find our pace
No need to hide, no need to race
The world slows down, the stars align
And then we fly, it's our time to shine
In the shadows of the night
We come alive, no need for light
No sunrise to chase us down
In the dark, we wear the crown
We are night owls, night birds - and we touch the sky
Under the moon and stars we're flying high
Graffiti whispers from the alley walls
Hidden messages, where mystery calls
Young lovers in the corner, eyes locked tight
Sharing secrets, sheltered from the light
A lone saxophone crying the blues
Notes drifting off like yesterday's news
Hot dogs sizzle, mustard and spice
A dollar in hand, life's simple delights
Streetlamps flicker, as secrets unfold
The air grows thick with stories untold
Whispers of jazz from a window ajar
The city's a poem, written in tar
Someone's laughing, someone's crying
The night's alive, emotions flying
A stranger's glance, a fleeting grin
On these streets, new tales begin
In the quiet streets, we find our way
No need to hide, no need to stray
The world slows down, the stars align
And once again, it's our time to shine
In the shadows of the night
We come alive, no need for light
No sunrise to chase us down
In the dark, we wear the crown
We are night owls, night birds - and we touch the sky
Under the moon and stars we're flying high
Morning creeps, the sky turns gray
The night retreats, it slips away
Footsteps fade, the streets are bare
But memories linger, we were there
As daylight breaks, we say goodbye
Night owls rest, until next time
In the quiet streets, we find our pace
No need to hide, no need to race
The world slows down, the stars align
And we fly, it's our time to shine
In the shadows of the night
We come alive, no need for light
No sunrise to chase us down
In the dark, we wear the crown
We are night owls, night birds - and we touch the sky
Under the moon and stars we're flying high
