Suddenly Midnight Blue

October 2003
Lawrence Tan

As the day comes to an end
Cozy up on the river bend
Flirting the moon, chasing the stars
All immersed in the color of my heart
Midnight Blue…

I am thinking of you
Hands on the wheel
But who knows how I feel
Defeated and heavy
Shoulders droopy
Midnight Blue…

Now where are you?
Got to get her there on time
The lesson costs more than a dime
While waiting in the car
My mind starts to wander afar
Midnight Blue…

I am thinking of you
Where do we go tonight?
Any place is just fine
Are we going to leave soon?
Yes Dear. Look! Such a perfect moon!
Hey, Midnight Blue
Are you thinking of me too?

The night is falling, silence is calling
Affixed to the familiar ceiling
Never afraid to die
But always dread to say goodbye
Midnight Blue…
I am thinking of you

I like suffering and I like pain
How do I get here, my heart is in chain
I know I’ll never see the light
I fulfill my day and live by the night
Midnight Blue
Oh! How I miss you!
