Midnight Prayer - Jimmy White

Time, trains passing by, in the blink of an eye

I’m left grasping at air

I’d walk a million hard miles, to see one of your smiles

And lay my soul bare

I lay me down at night to pray

In a dream that cannot stay

I see your face so far away

In a midnight prayer

Lost, in a cloud drifting on, in a moment it’s gone

Still I’m in the same place

Trains, from the stations they go, mine’s the wrong one I know

Cause I can’t see your face

Reaching for what I have missed

Lips that I have never kissed

I do not care for open doors

Unless this one

Unless this one is yours

I lay me down at night to pray

Another midnight prayer
