He sees a frozen shadow

Cold in the neon flash

He sees the ghost of a chance in her eyes

He longs to take her away

To a place where love can last

Without all these memories

Of all the emptier loves in her life

'Cause He knows how bad it can get

And He sees her lose

Though she pays her dues

She still winds up in debt

And the night cracks

Like a whip in her heart

She looks into the light

He takes her out of the darkness



He's a thief in the night

Where souls are for sale but nobody buys

Please believe me when I

When I tell you His love

Is a steal at any price



He sees a broken bottle

There in a young boy's hand

It's full of the anger

That's cut him so deep

He longs to take him in

And show He understands

And give him something that's more than

A promise that no one will keep

'Cause He knows how bad it can hurt

When you try and you try

'Til you don't know why

'Cause you still find that nothing works

And his heart cracks

Like a whip in the night

He takes him out of the darkness

And into the light



And He's a thief in the night

Where souls are for sale but nobody buys

Please believe me when I

When I tell you His love

Is a steal at any price



He's a thief in the night

Where souls are for sale but nobody buys

Please believe me when I

When I tell you His love

Is a steal at any price



He's a thief in the night

Where souls are for sale but nobody buys

Please believe me when I

When I tell you His love

Is a steal at any price



He's a thief in the night
