|
Hold that chrysalis in your palm |
|
See it split and change |
|
It won't do you any harm |
|
It's just trying to rearrange |
|
It was born to live a day |
|
Now it flies up from your hand |
|
It's beautiful |
|
It's the one they call your ever loving man |
|
Wolves have carried your babies away |
|
Oh, your kids drip from their teeth |
|
The nights are long and the day |
|
Is bitter cold beyond belief |
|
You spread yourself like a penitent |
|
On the mad vibrating sand |
|
And through your teeth |
|
Arrange to meet your midnight man |
|
Everybody's coming around to my place |
|
Everybody's coming around to my place |
|
Everybody's coming around, baby don't you see? |
|
Everybody wanna be your midnight man |
|
Don't disturb me as |
|
I sleepTreat me gentle when |
|
I wakeAnd don't disturb me as |
|
I sleepEven though your body aches |
|
And even though your body aches |
|
To serve at his command |
|
Between the wars |
|
She still adores her ever loving man |
|
Close your eyes, sleep in him |
|
Dream of your lost sons and daughters |
|
Me, I'll raise up my dorsal fin |
|
And glide up and down the waters |
|
I'll glide up and down the waters |
|
And I'll walk upon the land |
|
And I'll call 'em out |
|
The ones who doubt your midnight man |
|
Everybody's coming around to my place |
|
Everybody's coming around to my place |
|
Everybody's coming around, darling don't you see? |
|
Everybody wanna be your midnight man |
|
It's early in the morning |
|
And I don't know what to do |
|
It's early in the morning |
|
And I can't believe it's true |
|
It's early in the morning |
|
And it's happening again |
|
Well, I called you once, |
|
I called you twice |
|
Ain't I your midnight man? |
|
Everybody's coming around to my place |
|
Everybody's coming around to my place |
|
Everybody's coming around, they want you, they love you |
|
They need to be your midnight man |
|
Everybody's coming, everybody's coming |
|
Everybody's coming around to be your midnight man |
|
To be your midnight man |
