MIDNIGHT

MIDNIGHT COMES AND MIDNIGHT GOES,

IT IS THE WAY OF THINGS, IT SEEMS.

BUT THE MIDNIGHT OF JUST YESTERDAY,

BROKE MY HEART, AND BROKE MY DREAMS.

THE MIDNIGHT THAT WAS SO BLACK

THAT YOUR HAND, YOU COULD NOT SEE,

CAME UPON ME VERY SUDDENLY,

IT SURPRISED AND TORMENTED ME.

THE MIDNIGHT, THE DARKEST MIDNIGHT,

WAS UNEXPECTED BY ME ALONE.

YOU KNEW IT WAS COMING TO ME,

FOR YOU LEFT ME, YOU WERE SUDDENLY GONE.

THE MIDNIGHT HAS COME INTO MY LIFE,

FOR THERE DOES NOT SEEM TO BE,

LOVE THAT IS LEFT WORTH HAVING,

YOU TOOK YOUR WONDERFUL LOVE FROM ME.

THE MIDNIGHT, THE DARKEST MIDNIGHT

THAT I HAVE OBSERVED, BY FAR,

HAS LEFT ME BEREFT AND BROKEN,

LOVE'S NO LONGER IN MY REPERTOIRE.

THE MIDNIGHT, DARK, DARK MIDNIGHT,

HAS FALLEN UPON MY HEART.

YOUR LOVE HAS BEEN TAKEN FROM ME,

I'M TOO BROKEN FOR A BRAND-NEW START.

MIDNIGHT, DARK, BLACK MIDNIGHT,

FALLS HEAVILY UPON MY SOUL.

TEARS ROLL HURRIEDLY DOWN MY CHEEKS,

I CAN NEVER BE CONSOLED.

MIDNIGHT, DARK, DARK MIDNIGHT.
