Devil by the Window lyrics
This song tells the story of a person struggling with temptation, with the devil lurking at their window. The chorus invites the listener to “Come, come, come out to play” and to let go of their worries and fly away into the night. The refrain of the song is a reminder to “Dream on, dream on, good night”, suggesting that in the face of temptation, it can be beneficial to have faith and to embrace one’s inner dreams.

Lie, lie, lie, lie down Go rest your eyes Just fall asleep, sweet dreams You can’t get off the ride A wolf in sheep clothes His disguise
In the na-na-na-night
You’ll be hiding insideOh, whatcha doing?
You got some time today?
Oh, what a nuisance
Come, come, come out to playHigh, so high, the crimson sky
It’s way too sweet to turn down
I scream and shout but no one’s round
There’s no way to escape itI met the devil by the window
Traded my life
Temptation touched my tongue
Spread the wings of desireHe’s whispering
“Give up, don’t you put up a fight”
Said the devil by the window
“Dream on, dream on, good night“Said the devil by the window
“Dream on, dream on, good night”Waste, waste away
In the gutter with me
No, I can't tell what is fake in my realityI see the waves, see the waves
Wash over me
Oh stay, you can stay
When you're tempted to leaveOh, whatcha doing?
You got some time today?
Oh, what a nuisance
Come, come, come out to playHigh, so high, the crimson sky
It’s way too sweet to turn down
I scream and shout but no one’s round
There’s no way to escape itI met the devil by the window
Traded my life
Temptation touched my tongue
Spread the wings of desireHe’s whispering
“Give up, don’t you put up a fight”
Said the devil by the window
“Dream on, dream on, good night“Said the devil by the window
“Dream on, dream on, good night”Devil, de-devil, devil
Devil, de-devil, oh, I met the
Devil, de-devil, devil
Come here, come here, good nightHigh
I feel my body drifting into the sky
I won’t come down, come down, come downI’ll fly
Weightless without a worry into the night
He said, “Dream on, dream on, dream on”
