Your lips
|
were like a red and ruby chalice
|
warmer than the summer night
|
The clouds
|
were like an alabaster
|
palace rising to a snowy height
|
Each star
|
it's own aurora borealis
|
suddenly you held me tight
|
I could see the Midnight Sun
|
<Interlude>
|
I can't explain
|
the silver rain that found me
|
or was that a moonlight veil
|
The music
|
of the universe around me
|
or was that a nightingale
|
And then your arms
|
miraculously found me
|
suddenly the sky turned pale
|
I could see the Midnight Sun
|
Was there such a night
|
it's a thrill I still
|
don't quite believe
|
But after you were gone
|
there was still
|
some stardust on my sleeve
|
The flame of it may
|
dwindle to an ember
|
and the stars forget to shine
|
And we may see the meadow
|
in December
|
icy white andcrystalline
|
But oh my darling always
|
I'll remember when your lips
|
were close to mine
|
And we saw the Midnight Sun
|
<Interlude>
|
Was there such a night
|
it's a thrill I still
|
don't quite believe
|
But after you were gone
|
there was still
|
some stardust on my sleeve
|
The flame of it may
|
dwindle to an ember
|
and the stars forget to shine
|
And we may see the meadow
|
in December
|
icy white andcrystalline
|
But oh my darling always
|
I'll remember when your lips
|
were close to mine
|
And we saw the Midnight Sun
|
Midnight Sun
|
Midnight Sun
|
sh that I could talk to you
|
Be with you somehow
|
I know you're in a better place
|
And you know I can see your face
|
I know you're smiling down on me
|
Saying everything's okay
|
I wish that I could hold you now
|
I wish that I could
|
touch you now
|
