Story Behind The Song
This is a song to my wife when we were first getting to know one another. She's a very conservative woman, and this song was a "dare" for her to get in touch with that darker and wilder side of herself.
Song Description
The song ascerts that we all have a bit of "animal" in us. Sometimes, getting in touch with that animal can help us to reach deeper inside ourselves. Native American indians believed this as well.

Lyrics
(SPOKEN) IN THIS TWILIGHT, WALKING SUCH A FINE LINE. I?M IN A HEAT, PACING TO A SIMPLE TIME. I FEEL YOUR HEARTBEAT, POUNDIN? OUT LIKE THUNDER, I BIDE MY TIME, THEN I?LL PUT YOU UNDER MY SPELL!
( IN THE NIGHT... )...WHEN YOU LAY YOUR BODY DOWN. AND YOU FIND THAT YOU CAN ALMOST HEAR THE SOUND OF MY CALL...
WELL THAT?S THE SOUND OF THE WOLF IN ME, IT?S NEVER BEEN FAR FROM YOUR SIDE.I?LL BE YOUR DARKEST FANTASY, AND I?LL INTRODUCE YOU FIRMLY TO THE NIGHT,
WHEN YOU FIND THE NEED TO TOUCH DOWN.
LOOK INSIDE! AND YOU?LL KNOW ME BY THE SOUND OF MY CALL.
SO JUST CONNECT TO THE WOLF IN ME. AS YOU GIVE INTO THE NIGHT AND THE WOLF IN YOU WILL SEE, THE WOLF IN ME, AND WE WILL RUN WITH THE NIGHT.
YOU CAN RUN, BUT CAN?T HIDE, DON?T GO LOOKING FOR COVER.
?CAUSE WHEN YOU RUN WITH THE NIGHT, YOU?LL BE SURE TO DISCOVER, THERE'S NO COVER...
FROM THE SOUND OF THE WOLF IN ME. IT?S ALWAYS BEEN THERE BY YOUR
SIDE.LOCKED AWAY SO SECRETLY, TUCKED AND FOLDED TIGHTLY IN YOUR MIND!
COME FEEL MY BITE, GIVE INTO THE FLESH WOUND. I?M LIKE A COLD RAIN BUILDING TO A MONSOON. YOUR RESISTANCE ONLY SERVES TO DELAY MY RESOLVE. I?LL KAMIKAZE (MY WAY TO YOU! ) (SO JUST GIVE IN...)
...TO THE WOLF IN ME., (CAN?T YOU HEAR ME DARLIN??) AND PUT AWAY YOUR FOOLISH PRIDE. (CALLIN? OUT MY NAME TO YOU?) COME TASTE MY BRAND OF LUNACY, IT?S TIME TO GIVE IN TO THE CALL OF THE NIGHT!
AND I?LL LAY YOUR BODY DOWN. ..(I?M GONNA, I?M GONNA LAY YOUR BODY
DOWN!) IN THE NIGHT, WHEN I FINALLY HEAR THE SOUND OF YOUR CALL.
(I?M GONNA, I?M GONNA LAY YOUR BODY DOWN!) IN THE NIGHT, HALF PAST TWILIGHT TIME ...(I?M GONNA, I?M GONNA LAY YOUR BODY DOWN!) IN THE NIGHT,
