“The Heart of
Midnight” (Long Version)
Copyright by Frank A. DeCenso, Jr.
[Vs1]
They
were too young to be there,
Too far from hopes or dreams;
On streets with broken shadows,
Nothing’s ever what it seems –
They still searched for some answers,
Then met 'neath neon’s flame;
Shared old forgotten love songs,
And each one was the same...
CHORUS
In the heart of
midnight,
Where two wrongs make one right –
Two loners met each
other,
Now they’re on this road
together –
In the heart of
midnight…
[Vs2]
They spent each night together,
Holding under mission signs;
They each had different mem'ries,
That darkness gladly hides –
Their feelings said they’d make it,
Two survivors from lost ships;
When old lies tried to drown them,
Breath came through their warm lips.
CHORUS
In the heart of
midnight,
Where two wrongs make one right –
Two loners became
lovers,
Now they’re on this road
together –
In the heart of
midnight…
[BRIDGE]
On
a road somewhere tonight,
There are two torn silhouettes –
They're finding something right,
And
they haven’t finished yet…
[Vs3]
Still traveling these wastelands,
All
alone but love is strong;
Yesterdays brought them together,
And
together’s never wrong –
They’ve sworn all to each other,
Whatever morning brings;
There's too much in their future,
To
give up anything.
CHORUS
In the heart of midnight
–
Where two wrongs make one right;
Two loners became
lovers,
Now they’re on this road
together,
In the heart of midnight...
