In the cold light of the morning
I watch the sunrise slowly dawning
I close my eyes and I see you there
And the silence takes my breath away

I can´t stand to face another day
In the evening when the sun goes down
I reach out for you but you´re not around
You color my world midnight blue
So what´s a man like me to do
With all the love I feel for you

Come and take me midnight blue
Here I am, I´m waiting for you
When I´m troubled and all alone
You shine down on me
When I need sympathy, sympathy

Under street lights I walk alone
Hiding in shadows from dusk to dawn
The taste of your perfume
On the cold night air
Leaves a sadness hanging over me
The thought of you won´t let me be

Come and take me midnight blue
Here I am, I´m waiting for you
When I´m troubled and all alone
You shine down on me
When I need sympathy, sympathy

Come and take me midnight blue
Here I am, I´m waiting for you
When I´m troubled and all alone
You shine down on me
When I need sympathy...
