Midnight Sun

by Elton john

I have seen the midnight sun shining
I saw you fly away smiling
The dark night sheds no light
It merely serves a warning
I pray for one single ray of hope
Oh midnight sun.
I have seen the midnight sun shining
Watched her rays steadily dying
The candles are alight
I sit alone in mourning
I wonder is there death after life
Oh midnight sun.
While in my life
I have loved
I have lost
I feel no warmth from your days.
Yet I have seen the midnight sun shining
Welcomed her full golden lining
For when I have to fight
To wake up in the morning
I look to her for her open arms
Oh midnight sun.

Midnight Sun

by Melody Gardot

Waking up, with sunbeams in my eyes
And the world outside, seems to pass me by
Embrace the land, where the ocean meets the sand
And emotion fades away, until you take my hand
I will be coming with you, tonight
You're all that I want, you're all I have, you're all I need
Oh oh you will be shining on me
Like a midnight sun you're the only one who can set me free
You will set me free
Still so young and anxious to be free
But now I'm trapped inside, with all these memories
There's more than this, if you open up your eyes
And then soon you will realize, those days are all gone
I will be coming with you, tonight
You're all that I want, you're all I have, you're all I need
Oh, oh you will be shining on me
Like a midnight sun you're the only one who can set me free
We need to find a way to live
There's more to take, there's more to give
We try so hard, we try so hard and this time
We're on our way
I will be coming with you, tonight
You're all that I want, you're all I have, you're all I need
Oh oh you will be shining on me
Like a midnight sun you're the only one who can set me free
Like a midnight sun you're the only one who can set me free
Like a midnight sun, like a midnight sun, like a midnight sun

Midnight Sun

by Warren G, Sissel

Your lips were like a red and ruby chalice, warmer than the summer night
The clouds were like an alabaster palace rising to a snowy height.
Each star its own aurora borealis, suddenly you held me tight
I could see the Midnight Sun.
I can't explain the silver rain that found me--or was that a moonlit veil?
The music of the universe around me, or was that a nightingale?
And then your arms miraculously found me,suddenly the sky turned pale,
I could see the Midnight Sun.
Was there such a night, it's a thrill I still don't quite believe,
But after you were gone, there was still some stardust on my sleeve.
The flame of it may dwindle to an ember, and the stars forget to shine,
And we may see the meadow in December, icy white and crystalline,
But oh my darling always I'll remember when your lips were close to mine,
And we saw the Midnight Sun.

my life on straight avenue
and all my doings
were in a rut
all i had well defined
nightflights without wanting to
to where the lawn remains uncut
no more that
leave behind
i'm gettin paranoid
i feel a gaping void
i have to fill this
without idea of bliss
i have to break through
these barriers
i have to break through
i have to break through
midnight sun burn me to death
endless love bittersweet taste
midnight sun burn me to death
endless love bittersweet taste
who caused all this longing for
i try to reach this unknown land
don't know what, far away
where i've never never been before
i try to run and swim across
for what luck
who can say
i am getting paranoid
i feel a gaping void
i have to fill this
without idea of bliss
i have to break through these barriers
i have to break through
i have to break through
midnight sun burn me to death
endless love bittersweet taste
midnight sun burn me to death
endless love bittersweet taste
i want to touch your light
feel it deep inside
hear me singing tonight
hold you tight
i want to touch your light
feel it deep inside
hear me singing tonight
my wish to hold you tight
i am getting paranoid
i feel a gaping void
i have to fill this
without idea of bliss
i have to break through these barriers
i have to break through
i have to break through
midnight sun burn me to death
endless love bittersweet taste
midnight sun burn me to death
endless love bittersweet taste
midnight sun burn me ...

Midnight Sun

by Amorphis

[Weikath]
Tried so hard to understand all of your feelings
Tried to cope with your insanities
Come to think about too many ways of healing
What we lost or maybe never had
One small step into the hidden decoy
One more word is help and one will destroy
I woke up in the midnight sun
So aware damage has been done
Agony or sanctuary
Only fate will show the way
From the bright of day into the jaw of darkness
One is shoved, a victim of a lie
Friendly face turns into a fiery grimace
Suddenly feelings learn to die
Used up sympathy no chance to return
To a world one knew but wounds that will burn
Spent more time in the midnight sun
Still aware of what else has gone
Agonized and hypnotized
When will I be shown the way
Solo: Roland/Michael/both
Fell asleep and no midnight sun
Still aware justice has been done
No more doubts but disbelief
When the night was day
Celebration, miracle
And fate did show the way

midnight sun

by ENSIFERUM

They've stolen the moon
The magic is gone
And there in its place
A black midnight sun
The darkness is frightening
And love is denied
They've stolen the moon
God only knows why
The stars have lost their daughter
The devil's thieves have won
And there in her place
A black midnight sun

Midnight Sun

by Iggy pop

Floating over the airwaves
What a feeling
I don't believe it
Distant voices from deep space
Are you receiving?
Or can't you hear it?
You're still the only one
Who sets me free
Just like a midnight sun
Shining on me
Drifting over the freeways
It seems so easy
I know you're near me
Rising up through the staircase
Your eyes are open
I know you hear me
You're still the only one
Who sets me free
Just like a midnight sun
Shining on me
Riding out on the airwaves
What a feeling
I don't believe it
Lift me out of this strange place
Give me something
You know I need it
You're still the only one
Who sets me free
Just like a midnight sun
Shining on me
You're still the only one
Who sets me free
Just like a midnight sun
Shining on me
Your lips were like a red and ruby chalice
Warmer than the summer night
The clouds were like an alabaster palace
Rising to a snowy height
Each star it's on Aurora Borealis
Suddenly you held me tight
I could see the midnight sun
I can't explain
The silver rain that found me
Or was that a moonlit veil
The music of the Universe
Around me
Or was that a nightingale
And then your arms miraculously found me
Suddenly the sky turned pale
I could see the midnight sun
Was there such a night
It's a thrill
I still don't quite believe
But after you were gone
There was still some
Stardust on my sleeve
The flame of it may dwindle
To an amber
And the stars forget to shine
And we may see the meadow in December
Icy, wide and cristaline
But oh my darling always I'll remember
When your lips were close to mine
And we saw the Midnight Sun
The Midnight Sun
Midnight Sun

Midnight Sun

by The diplomats

As I watch you flickering slowly
In the shadows, nothing to hold
It's as if I don't recall our time before
And would it be so wrong
Not to remember?
There are times I look at you differently
Like I'd never seen you before
Funny after all we've done
You could be someone I don't know at all
(Don't know you at all)
Catch me I don't want to fall
But you pull the mountain from under me
Look, I'm dangling up in the blue
And it's a cartoon coyote eternity
Before I drop down to you
What am I supposed to do now?
There is something beautiful shining
In the far off night of your hair
Funny for a while it seemed to come from the sky
But it's in your head
Yes it fills your head
You and I don't always fly
Let me go I want to fall
Deep into the dark
But I'll get back to you
And I'll always know how to find you
Cause you shine like the midnight sun
Yes I'll always be here beside you
When I follow the midnight sun
Follow follow follow the midnight sun.

Midnight Sun

by Aaron carter

What went down on the side of the road?
What I saw at the edge of the see.
Only those elements time cannot wear,
and they follow.
What seeped out throught the cracks in time,
what sucks out the color in me?
What awaits beyond infinity?
Beyond and to all time I stand.
What blew in with the great gale?
What weighed down the falling leaves?
What came forth from the remains?
What has always lived and gone unseen?
What has caused the night to fall?
Who speaks of eternity?
Who awakes to night eternally?
Beyond and to all time I stand.
DE PROFUNDIS CLAMAVI (Baudelaire)
O my sole love, I pray thee pity me
From out this dark gulf where my poor heart lies,
A baren world hemmed in by leaden skies
Where horror flies at night, and blasphemy.
For half the year the sickly sun is seen,
The other half thick night lies on the land,
A country bleaker than the polar strand;
No beasts, no brooks, nor any shred of green.
There never was a horror which surpassed
This icy sun's cold cruelty, and this vast
Night like primeval Chaos; would I were
Like the dumb brutes, who in a secret lair
Lie wrapt in stupid slumber for a space...
Time creeps at so burdensome a pace.
