It's getting late in the evening
   it's time now for dreaming
   a candle is burning and tables are burning
   yeah.
   The shadows of darkness will fade in the pale moonlight
   and when we get together as one it will be alright.
   Don't talk of destiny
   don't tall me whatever will be will be
   'cause you're gonna see -
  
   We'll be raising heaven in hell tonight
   fill the shadows with tender might
   raising heaven in hell tonight in midnight's dream.
   We'll be raising heaven in hell tonight
   love
   thunder and dynamite
   take my hand and hold on tight in midnight's dream.
  
   We'll see the joker
   the juggler
   the sailor
   the refugees
  
   we'll hear the rich man
   the poor man
   the beggar down on his knees.
   We'll see the hungry
   the stranded
   the poor empty-handed ones
   and I'll hold you in my arms forever 'til kingdom comes.
  
   Don't talk of destiny
   don't tell me whatever will be will be
  
   'cause you're gonna see -
   We'll be raising heaven in hell tonight
   fill the shadows with tender might
   raising heaven in hell tonight in midnight's dream.
   We'll be raising heaven in hell tonight
  
   love
   thunder and dynamite
   take my hand and hold on tight in midnight's dream.
   As the years roll by and the memories fly
   and the sun goes down tonight
  
   I will take your hand
   we will make our stand
   tonight
   tonight
   tonight -
  
   We'll be raising heaven in hell tonight
   fill the shadows with tender might
   raising heaven in hell tonight in midnight's dream.
   We'll be raising heaven in hell tonight
  
   love
   thunder and dynamite
   take my hand and hold on tight in midnight's dream.
   We'll be raising heaven in hell tonight
   fill the shadows with tender might
   raising heaven in hell tonight in midnight's dream.
   We'll be raising heaven in hell tonight
  
   love
   thunder and dynamite
   take my hand and hold on tight in midnight's dream.
