lyrics

Midnight comes and lays its head upon a mirrored room
You reach out to grab a glimpse but it all fades away so soon
In the darkest days (you) keep a look out into the light
Take the key and slip away into an endless night

Snow falls round you hear a sound that brings you to your knees
Trees give way and light a voice into your make believe
Mix and match the pirouettes that dance around your head
Drifting through a melody that ripples through the air

In my mind I am free but it’s not what you want to believe
This time I will see through the walls staring back at me
Midnight comes and lays its head upon a mirrored room
You reach out to grab a glimpse but it all fades away so soon

Carry a dream into the cold and you feel it coming down
A voice calls out into the noise and the night barely makes a sound
Swirling scenes of masquerade that lift into the air
And a moonlight train arrives in time to slip you off to another affair

In my mind I am free but it’s not what you want to believe
This time I will see through the walls staring back at me
Midnight comes and lays its head upon a mirrored room
You reach out to grab a glimpse but it all fades away so soon
