Corey Hart - Lamp At Midnite lyrics
rate meYou take my heart like a bow and arrow<br />
And shoot it at me I know<br />
I walk the tight rope when it's narrow<br />
To earn my degree I know<br />
Now I'm the last boy at the playground<br />
Who's laughin' at me - I know, I know, I know<br />
And through the corridor I follow you<br />
And the chaos trips my mind<br />
Now I write you short stories<br />
Just to say we're gonna love each other all the way<br />
Well I know you're not the talkin' kind<br />
And if you really want to know me<br />
(Oh, you know)<br />
Burn a lamp at midnite<br />
Said I really want to know you<br />
(Oh, you know)<br />
Burn a lamp at midnite<br />
In a red school house where I see you<br />
In the morning light - I know<br />
Send me sailin' to pick you flowers<br />
From the isle of white - You know, you know, you know<br />
Take my eyes to the pages<br />
Where I draw pictures of your name<br />
Now I speak in dialects<br />
Just to say<br />
(We're gonna love each other all the way)<br />
You're not the kind of girl that plays the game<br />
And if you really want to know me<br />
(Oh, you know)<br />
Burn a lamp at midnite<br />
Said I really want to know you<br />
(Oh, you know)<br />
Burn a lamp at midnite<br />
And to really understand me<br />
(Oh, you know)<br />
Burn a lamp at midnite, nite, nite, nite<br />
And through the corridor I follow you<br />
And the chaos trips my mind<br />
Now I write you short stories<br />
Just to say<br />
(We're gonna love each other all the way)<br />
But I know you're not the talkin' kind, kind<br />
And if you really want to know me<br />
(Oh, you know)<br />
Burn a lamp at midnite<br />
Said I really want to know you<br />
(Oh, you know)<br />
Burn a lamp at midnite<br />
And to really understand me, oh you know<br />
Burn a lamp at midnite<br />
I said I really want to know you, oh you know<br />
Burn a lamp at midnite yeah<br />
(Da, Della) continued until the end of the song. <br />
