Midnight Summer Dream Lyrics

Woke up on a good day
And the world was wonderful
A midnight summer dream had me in its spell
I dreamt about an old man
Who sat and watched the rain all night
He couldn′t sleep a wink as all the drops fell

He told me of the beauty hidden in our foreheads
And he told me of the ugliness we show instead
And when we put a foot wrong, do we learn from all the pain?
A midnight summer dream as he watched the rain

Then at midnight he poured another drink
And bent my ear
And after midnight, we sat up half the night
Or maybe more
And he began to tell me what it was all for

I woke up in an armchair
He had gone, I don't know where
He left me there to sit and look at the rain
I don′t remember much at all
But his words were echoing
A midnight summer dream and then wake again

Maybe I'll never find him
Maybe he's gone forever
Maybe I′ll have to sit here
Watching the weather
One thing′s pretty certain helped me
Make it in the night
And showed me somewhere else between wrong and right

So at midnight if you can't sleep
Then I can bend your ear
After midnight, we′ll sit up half the night
Or maybe more
And I'll begin to tell you what it is all for

I wake up on a good day
The world feels wonderful
The midnight summer dream has me in its spell

(Woke up in an armchair) I woke up in an armchair
He had gone I don′t know where (he had gone I don't know where)
He left me there to sit and look at the rain (he left me there to sit and look at the rain)
I don′t remember much at all (I don't remember much at all)
But his words were echoing (but his words were echoing)
A midnight summer dream (midnight summer dream)
And then I wake again (then I wake again)
