Middle Of the Night
MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT
Born in the middle of the night awakened by the old streetlight
Taking in the dark air dreaming of place where somebody would get it right
You were looking for a place to land said you’d lend a helping hand
We’d ride across the night sky diamonds in each other’s eyes
Thinking we were out of sight
Such a long time that I’d been waiting for you
In such a short time lovers become fools
So we burned those wheels right through
Till there was nothing else we’d ever want to do
Never any need to run the day had always just begun
Wondering why the others had warned us we would end up
Fading like a setting sun
You were talking like a rich man does
You’d take it all just because
Nothings gonna fall away and little things you never
Pay for in this life anyway
Was a long time that I’d been waiting for you
In such a short time lovers become fools
So we burned those wheels right through
Till there was nothing else we’d ever want to do
The moment when the water breaks
And the roaring waves come rolling in
You hear it when the silence caves
And you lose your way and go under
It all began to seem so clear
The day that you called me dear
Trying to disguise through beautiful lies
The place where your heart would disappear
Days began to feel so long, like a never-ending song
Found a new place to land, you took back your hand
And faded like a setting sun
Was a long time that I’d been waiting for you
In such a short time lovers become fools
So we burned those wheels right through
Till there was nothing else we’d ever want to do
So we burned those wheels right through
Till there was nothing else we’d ever want to do
Born in the middle of the night, awakened by the old streetlight
Taking in the dark air dreaming of place where somebody would get it right
Taking in the dark air dreaming of place where somebody would get it right
