Chorus:
oh the midnight, need a searchlight.
oh the midnight, need a searchlight.
I walk along the rocky shore,
the place i lost myself;
i search the water, look in the sky,
i hear the cries for help.
i trace my footsteps down to the sea,
but then the path disappears;
here in the darkness, i'm runnin' blind,
been stumblin' for all of these years.
[chorus]
What was the demon that made me run,
can i ever hope to understand?
i hear my voice, echoes on the wind
i try to reach out with my hand.
without a light, i might be here forever,
lost for all eternity;
there in the darkness,
slippin' through my fingers,
the face that smiles back is me.
[chorus x3]
