"Spirit in the Night"
Song lyrics, Greetings from Asbury Park, N.J. (1973)
“Misty path and the night is endless,
She could be a queen
Or a desert princess.
Hero takes her hand and leads her through…
Who knows what this night will do?
Only in the blue night he comes to her
That's when the whole night
Belongs to her.”
Song lyrics, Earth Moving (1989)

Muted the night.
She turned —
A cymbal crashed,
Amid roaring horns.”
