Midnight

Uriah Heep

MIDNIGHT



I just lay down wonderin'

What to lay down

Lately I can do it

Every day undisturbed

I think I know what

But I can't find out how

The morning didn't show me

What it was worth



Miles and miles of smiles

Getting me nowhere

Opportunities I just can see

Can't lead me to the slaughter

'Cause I'll already be there

I've been up that street

And I know what's waiting for me

Just waiting



Midnight, moonlight

Day into day

No escape I must stay

Midnight, show me the way

Show me the way

Give me something to play

Something to play

To help me make the new day



Take me out of the darkness

Into the light

I've no friends to stand by me

Here in the night

It's an affair of

A sad and weary heart

Take me out of the darkness

Back to the start



I just lay down wonderin'

What to lay down

Lately I can do it

Every day undisturbed

I think I know what

But I just can't find out how

The morning didn't show me

What it was worth
