Midnight Blue

The winter sky is crystal clear In the hours before the dawn I walk into the cold night air Feeling lonely and forlorn I look up to the heavens I see a sky of special hue And I can’t help but shiver When I think of midnight blue Among the stars I see a face That is smiling down at me My heart is filled with pain For it is your face that I see The memories flood my mind With all that we’ve been through And I can’t help but quiver When I think of midnight blue I can hear the sound of sighing But from where I cannot tell A voice drifts on the breeze And it seems to cast a spell My heart is filled with grief For the voice belongs to you My tears flow like a river When I think of midnight blue My arms reach up towards you I remember your gentle face When you had caught a fever I rushed around to your place You held my hand so tightly You said your love was true And then you closed for ever Lovely eyes of midnight blue
