It's late in the evening
And up and down my street
Every window I see is dark
A solitary candle
Flickers here by me
And it tries to put a light in my heart

There's cracks in all the walls
And an aching in my soul
That i've never been close to before
And i'm tired to my bones
But sleep aint no friend
So it's me and the midnight once more

Wooaahhh, wooaahhh

Now hope holds hands with despair
And i'm caught between them somewhere
And we dance all three in the midnight air
And we pray for the sun to appear

And all these memories
Are weighing down on me
Like a blanket as black as the sea
And I fight with the tide
As it pulls me in deep
And I wonder will I ever be free

And these changes in me
Are shadows and scars
Where there once was a light before
But there's a magic in these tears
And i'm under it's spell
All alone in the midnight once more

Wooaahhh, wooaahhh

Now hope holds hands with despair
And i'm caught between them somewhere
And we dance all three in the midnight air
And we pray for the sun to appear
