Night is approaching, daylight switches off
At night everything can be heard
And every song is poison,
The night owes you to me.
I am a man of the night,
Tonight and forever... because of you.
On top of it all, two gypsies appear
One to curse this life
The other who believes him,
The night owes you to me.
That is the man I am,
Tonight and forever... because of you.
For you I will howl, bang on people's doors
I'll wake the street, sing loudly in spite,
They'll say: "He's drinking again,
Look at how he ruined himself,
Again his face kissed a closed door."
I'm drunk, but I didn't drink a drop
Not a drop - do you hear?
Not a drop - who believes me?
But I did cause a wreck,
"He did - there he is!"
Yes I did, because the night owes you to me.
