"The Heart of Midnight" (Long Version)

“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...
