Well I rode far away, on the dark black wave,
Nothing was the same when I woke up.
And I wrote out these words, as my circled on;
Sitting in my bright little corner.
Midnight crawls out, one more time.
I'm hiding out as the shadows climb.
Early in the morning I listen to the sounds
Of people walking up and down the street.
I hear a voice that sounds just like a girl I used to know.
She rode a horse and lived in a hotel room.
Midnight crawls out, one more time.
I'm hiding out as the church bells chime.
Come to the window and tap on the screen,
I'll climb out and walk in the rain.
The shallow waters that lap at our feet
Rise up a little every day.
And then late in the night, as I'm drifting off to sleep,
I picture you there on the big screen.
You were riding on a train, through the desert at night,
Leaning on your daddy's shoulder.
Midnight crawls out, one more time.
I'm hiding out as the shadows climb.
