Lyrics: Driving down the road An endless line of streetlights glows orange Against an empty backdrop of unknown possibilities The moon, twice its normal size shines White, grey, purple Every detail mesmerizingly clear for the first time It all makes sense A warm breeze rustles the leaves of an old elm Layers of texture, color, depth Like a million tiny hands reaching out to me Quick smile, nod in reply The world is right I own the night, for I am king King of my reality Be cool Lay low Nobody's fool It's all yours, you know So just take it slow A large black dog runs out from an alley Past my open window Making his rounds Seeking whatever the night has to offer He pauses to watch me pass A far off time and place Distant memory Maybe not even real Round a corner The moon now fills my windshield Obscured by silhouettes of passing branches White, grey, purple, and black Then it hits me Headstrong, right or wrong, I push ahead The king is invincible I laugh and ease back into my comfortable seat Lean back Try to relax Before you know, it's time to go Now the road winds its way along a hillside Overlooking the city A vast landscape of tiny, brilliant points Stares back at me Each one sharp, focused Crystal clear I think of that black dog in the street And realize that he was I And I am he Always have been -- Always will be Roaming through the darkness Chasing the promise of what may come Eventually finding our way home Before the dawn, all is well For in my reality, I am king And I own this night Chords: Speaking (Am7, D9) Chorus (Am7, D9... C, G, Am, C, D7, Am) Bridge (Em7, Bm7,... Am7, D9) Original Song Copyright Dan Koch dankoch2010 Special thanks to Kathy Archey for the doing the female vocals.
