Sunlight shines
Gentle away
Cause daytime can show
What nobody knows
You still care for him
And want him to stay
He's sleeping beside you now
Finally you touch
Gently and enough
Fingers run through his hair
You're taking everything
And store it far within
This is the life of an innocent thief at night
He can't turn back time
And have it undone
And you can't say
He's forgiven anyway
You still care for him
Want him to stay
It's dark and love is everywhere
(You steal a kiss he'll never miss)
It's dark and he's still here
You know you still care
He's sleeping beside you now
Finally you touch
Gently and enough
Fingers run through his hair
You're taking everything
And store it far within
This is the life of an innocent thief at night
