A classic trip-hop track without that cheesy "eighties" feel. It is a woman going out for a hunt in the neon city lights.

lyrics

I'm putting on all my favourite clothing,
My magic purple dress.
Into the night by the sunlight closing
I walk out to impress...

I'll go out and I'll wander,
I shall try to look exciting,
I'll be as loud as thunder,
Brighter than a strike of lightning...
Wander, making an impression,
Drawing all attention,
Sweeter than a box of candies...

Fairly following the shapes of my curves
It's shading in my skin;
The bits of privacy it preserves
Should start the fire within...

I am out and I wander,
I feel that I look exciting,
I am as loud as thunder,
Brighter than a strike of lightning.
Wander, graceful as a panther,
Softer than a feather,
Sweeter than a box of candies...

Filled with nightly sounds and odours the avenue's alive, the avenue's moving; so am I, with the warm wind caressing me, embracing me.
Myriads of lights all around are so sweet, so beautiful; so am I – so beautiful, so sweet, but the looks are deceiving, the looks are disappointing.
Eyes seem to see me, still they don't seem to care – they move on, to see someone else, somebody but me, anybody but me... Can it be so cruel? How can it be so cruel?
Is my beauty shaded by that of the sky and lights? Or is it simply an illusion and there is no way for me to be among so many couples embraced by one another and not just the wind?

Getting home by the moonlight closing
I'm taking off my dress.
My pretty curves and my favourite clothing
Unable to impress.

I've been out and I've wandered,
Seeing all them careless faces,
Hardly leaving any traces –
No amazement, nothing in the twilight.
Failure in the limelight,
Sleeping in the daylight,
Waiting for the next night

I'll wander,
I know that I'll look exciting,
I'll be as loud as thunder,
Brighter than a strike of lightning...
Wander, making an impression,
Drawing all attention,
I'm sweeter than a box of candies...
