Midnight Choir

Don't turn out the lights

Στίχοι
Woke up this morning
Riding on a homebound train
Pocket full of memories
Thinking about the good old days
Bought a bottle of wine
With the last dime to my name
Jumped an Oslo freight
Running through the pouring rain


Oh mama, don't turn out the light
There's a shadow on the moon outside
Keep it burning in the window to guide my way tonight
Don't lock the door, I'm coming home for sure
I've missed the old home place
I am never gonna leave anymore

This side of the city
I felt the cold wind blow
More than a heartache
It chilled me to the bone
I squeeze my empty bottle
And the tears began to flow
It slipped right through my fingers
With a few more miles to go

Oh mama, don't turn out the light
There's a shadow on the moon outside
Keep it burning in the window to guide my way tonight
Don't lock the door, I'm coming home for sure
I've missed the old home place
I am never gonna leave anymore

Oh mama, don't turn out the light
There's a shadow on the moon outside
Keep it burning in the window to guide my way tonight
Don't lock the door, I'm coming home for sure
I've missed the old home place
I am never gonna leave anymore


Mercy of Maria

Στίχοι
As I drink too much
As I scream out of lust
At the moon for someone to touch me
As I fail to please
What the moon won`t ease
I can`t sit still from running wild
As I wipe my past
For something good to last
As demons are crowling under my skin
As I walk away
There`s nothing to do but pray
That Maria will take me in her arms
At the mercy of Maria
Will I lay my aching head
At the mercy of Maria
Will I find my resting place
At the mercy of Maria
Will I lay my aching head
At the mercy of Maria
Will I find my resting place

Muddy River of Loneliness

Στίχοι
Muddy river of loneliness
For the boredom of the road
With no sign of disrespect
For the dark and heavy load
For tomorrow
They made love upon the morning
To the beating sound of love
All her secrets disclosed
Laying in his arms
My lips won't let you

Muddy river of loneliness
For the boredom of the road
With no sign of disrespect
For the dark and heavy load

They made love upon the faithless morning
To the beating sound of love
All her secrets disclosed
Laying in his arms

Muddy river of loneliness
For the boredom of the road
x3

Muddy river of loneliness
For the boredom of the road
My lips won't let you


Long Hard Ride

Στίχοι
There, there's no room for craziness
There, there's no room for you and I
You and me baby were born on the dark side
And our love for a long hard ride ...

What's good about love
That's easily conquered
What's good about love
That ain't gonna last
What's good about love
That leaves you shattered
Like windows broken by blast ...

There, there's no way to freedom
There, there's no way for you and I
You and me baby were born on the dark side
And our love for a long hard ride ...

What's good about love
That moves too fast
What's good about love
That pulls the trigger
Before any questions are asked ...

There, there's no way to freedom
There, there's no way for you and I
You and me baby were born on the dark side
And our love for a long hard ride ...


The Violence of the World

Στίχοι
Angel, hear my call . Stranger I'm about to fall ...
The well that once drew will ...
Have no more, no more to give ...

Angel, hear my say . Stranger, come light my way
For many a prayer's escape
Save this one, it's getting late ...

Angel, I lie awake Stranger, don't let me break
The violence of the world
Took a hold, a hold of my soul ...

Angel, hear my call . Stranger, I'm about to fall
A world so hard to bear
Got no choice, oh Lord I swear ...

Angel, I lie awake
Stranger, don't let me break
The violence of the world
Took a hold, a hold of my soul ...

Angel, I lie awake
Stranger, don't let me break
The violence of the world
Took a hold, a hold of my soul
Took a hold, a hold of my soul ...


Talk To Me

Στίχοι
You're goin' down
Like a clown
You've been hangin' around
Wearin' sheades when the sun don't shine
Nothin' but a kid all burned out
Cursin' and screamin' under a cloud
Wearin' shades when the sun don't shine

If I close my eyes
When you go out tonight
Will you then talk to me?

Like an old man sittin' with a cane
Longin' for love alone in the rain
Wearin' shades when the sun don't shine

You're nothin' but a kid all burned out
Cursin' and screamin' under a cloud
Wearin' shades when the sun don't shine

If I close my eyes
When you go out tonight
Will you then talk to me?

If I close my eyes
When you go out tonight
Will you then talk to me?

(Instrumental)

If I close my eyes
When you go out tonight
Will you then talk to me?

If I close my eyes
When you go out tonight
Will you then talk to me?
Will you then talk to me?

You're goin' down
Like a clown
You've been hangin' around
Wearin' sheades when the sun don't shine
