Lyrics

Midnight

[Verse 1]

I'm going downtown where the music plays

Gonna live my life like it's slipping away

Gonna get drunk on the midnight air

Gonna pour my heart out to whoever is there

[Pre-Chorus]

Look at my eyes, look at my eyes

Never was good at telling lies

Look at my life, look at my life

I never was good at long goodbyes

[Chorus]

Midnight, take me somewhere

I don't wanna fight it no more

No, I don't wanna fight it no more

My life is somewhere out there

I don't wanna fight it no more

No, I don't wanna fight it no more

[Verse 2]

Gonna wake up in a parching sun

In a field of dreams like a river's run

Gonna spread out these broken wings

Gonna ride the wings to where the future sings

[Pre-Chorus]

Look at my life, look at my life

I'm opening up like a butterfly

Look at my eyes, look at my eyes

Every tear is a tear that dries

[Chorus]

Midnight, take me somewhere

I don't wanna fight it no more

No, I don't wanna fight it no more

My life is somewhere out there

I don't wanna fight it no more

No, I don't wanna fight it no more

[Bridge]

Look at my eyes, look at my eyes

Every tear is a tear that dries

[Chorus]

Midnight, take me somewhere

I don't wanna fight it no more

No, I don't wanna fight it no more

My life is somewhere out there

I don't wanna fight it no more

No, I don't wanna fight it no more

No, I don't wanna fight it no more

[Outro]

Going downtown where the music plays

Gonna live my life like it's slipping away
