Midnight Rocks

Al Stewart

You say with best intention

Let's throw away convention

Set sail across the water

To find the tides of fortune

I say please understand it

Don't let our love be stranded

Upon the midnight rocks

Upon the midnight rocks



You say there's no endeavour

We couldn't try together

No storm we couldn't weather

We'll ride the wind forever

I hear the words you've spoken

Don't let our love be broken

Upon the midnight rocks

Upon the midnight rocks



Ah, you know you know it's easy

Ah, to let it go believe me

Ah, you know, you know you feel it

Ah, don't lose it when you need it



I know that fascination

With living each sensation

In your imagination

There is no hesitation

I know your mind is turning

Don't let our love lie burning

Upon the midnight rocks

Upon the midnight rocks



I know that fascination

With living each sensation

In your imagination

There is no hesitation

I say please understand it

Don't let our love be stranded

Upon the midnight rocks
