Midnight Blue -

The first raindrop hits the window

There’s a low and thrumming ache

All the lights are flashing yellow

And it’s more than I can take

There’s laughter in the street

From up here it all sounds canned

Too tired to fall asleep

Feeling older than I am

The world is bathed in midnight blue

I’m still alive and somewhere so are you

I’m talking to myself, I got nothing to say

Been that way for years, what’s another day?

Another drink or two of midnight blue

Just around the other corner

There’s the dive I used to haunt

Haven’t been there in forever

Hope they’re keepin' my seat warm

Oh, I’ve hardly left this house

Yeah, I’ve hardly left my head

I bet they’re moppin' the floors right now

And tomorrow, they’ll trash the place again

The world is bathed in midnight blue

I’m still alive, and somewhere so are you

I’m talking to myself, I got nothin' to say

Been that way for years, what’s another day?

Another drink or two of midnight blue

The season changes and I’m mostly just the same

Oh I swear he had your eyes

I’m still losin' at the same old games

Still laying down the same old lies

After all this time

The world is bathed in midnight blue

I’m still alive and somewhere so are you

I’m talking to myself, I got nothing to say

Been that way for years, what’s another day?

Another drink or two of midnight blue
