Midnight Blue

Electric Light Orchestra · Discovery [1979]

I see the lonely road that leads so far away

I see the distant lights that left behind the day

But what I see is so much more than I can say

And I see you in midnight blue



I see you cryin' now you've found a lot of pain

And what you're searchin' for can never be the same

But what's the difference

Cause they say what's in a name

And I see you in midnight blue

(Midnight blue)



I will (I will) love you tonight

And I will (I will) stay by your side

I'm lovin' you, I'm feelin' midnight blue

(Midnight blue)



I see you standing there far out along the way

I want to touch you but the night becomes the day

I count the words that I am never gonna say

And I see you in midnight blue



I will (I will) love you tonight

And I will (I will) stay by your side

I'm lovin' you, I'm feelin' midnight blue

(Midnight blue)



Can't you feel the love that I'm offering you

Can't you see how it's meant to be

Can't you hear the words that I'm saying to you

Can't you believe like I believe

It's only one and one, it's true

Still I see you in midnight blue

(Midnight blue)



I see (I see) beautiful days

And I feel (I feel) beautiful ways

Of loving you, everything's midnight blue



I will (I will) love you tonight

And I will (I will) stay by your side

I'm lovin' you, I'm feelin' midnight blue



(Repeat)
