[Verse] In the alley where shadows play Figaro the cat finds his way Paws so light on cobblestone Mystery in his eyes he's all alone [Verse 2] Whiskers twitch with gentle grace Moonlight dances on his face Silent hunter prowls the night Figaro's song a feline rite [Chorus] Oh Figaro hypnotize With your stealthy Silent eyes Wander where the echoes go In the night's soft afterglow [Verse 3] He's a ghost in London's mist A shadow seen but never kissed Figaro's tale untold remains A legend written in the rains [Verse 4] Purring softly in the gloom Where the roses never bloom Figaro your name is sung In the night forever young [Bridge] Melodies of your nine lives Echo where the future lies Figaro your path is clear Through the dark we have no fear
