Kristoph Klover - After Midnight lyrics

rate me

In the dead dark hours after midnight

When the world seems to stop in it's place

You can see a little more clearly

You can look your life in the face

You can see the things that you have to

Speak the words too true for the day

In the dead dark hours after midnight

Little friend will you listen and stay

In the time when I never knew you

I could view the world as my own

I was God's own gift to his creatures

And I wore an armor of stone

I was wise and faithful and noble

I was pompous, pious and cold

I was cruel when I never meant it

Too cold to touch or to hold

It was you who broke through my armor

It was you who breached through the walls

With your pain and your desperation

How could I not answer your call

How could I have guessed you would touch me

And in ways I couldn't control

How could I have known I would need you

Or have guessed you have seen to my soul

For as I taught you so you taught me

How to love and why to care

For your love had thawed my winter

Taught me how to feel and dare

When I looked tonight I discovered

I could not against and oppose

In the dead dark hours after midnight

I learned that I owed you my heart
