(Verse 1) Shadows stretch along the cobblestone street Silent steps on the cold concrete They say I’m an omen, they say I bring bad luck Standing in the doorway when the clock strikes twelve o'clock Yellow eyes glowing in the neon light Moving like a phantom through the middle of the night (Chorus) I’m a black cat crossing your path tonight Walking through the dark, turning shadows into light Call me a mystery, call me wild and free Your little superstitions never got a hold on me Yeah, I run with the night, everywhere I go A black cat putting on a solo show (Verse 2) Walking on the rooftops, balancing the ledge Never gonna stumble on the razor’s edge Nine lives burning like a velvet flame I don't need a collar and I don't need a name Whispers in the alleyway, rumors in the breeze I’m the one who rambles anywhere I please (Chorus) I’m a black cat crossing your path tonight Walking through the dark, turning shadows into light Call me a mystery, call me wild and free Your little superstitions never got a hold on me Yeah, I run with the night, everywhere I go A black cat putting on a solo show (Bridge) Let them spin their stories, let them cast their doubt I know what the midnight world is all about You can fear the dark or learn to make it yours Unlocking every single one of fortune's secret doors (Chorus) I’m a black cat crossing your path tonight Walking through the dark, turning shadows into light Call me a mystery, call me wild and free Your little superstitions never got a hold on me Yeah, I run with the night, everywhere I go A black cat putting on a solo show (Outro) Just a silhouette in the quiet rain Vanishing away like a phantom train Fading into midnight... Black cat on the run.
