Midnight Memories

I met you back in twenty one.
just a photo that stood out on a screen.
your smile enticed me, to hear your voice.
your past is yours, I didn't care where you had been.
when I found you , I could barely believe.
more beautiful than I could even conceive.
but you you were with another guy.
so we hid ourselves in a lie.
and then  parted leaving just midnight memories.
[chorus]
we played in the dark.
strolled through the park.
made love in the pale moon light.
we talked until dawn.
I sang you a song.
and promised you peace in my arms that night.
I never forgot you,  or the note that you left. when you said goodbye I fell to my knees.
now five years have passed, and you're hear once again.  out of my dreams.  those midnight memories.
[verse]
where have I been.  you know the answer to that.
dancing with the devil, and losing my mind.
a long lesson learned, never waste another day.
when they could have been cherished with you.  you're so damn kind.
ya maybe half a decade is gone.
but now I'm writing you this song.
I was with another, but now I'm not so blind.
I still remember what we felt late until that night.  I don't want to leave you behind.
[chorus]
we played in the dark.
strolled through the park.
made love in the pale moon light.
we talked until dawn.
I sang you a song.
and promised you peace in my arms that night.
I never forgot you,  or the note that you left. when you said goodbye I fell to my knees.
now five years have passed, and you're hear once again.  out of my dreams.  those midnight memories.
[bridge]
we may have missed a bit of time.
my life ain't worth a dime.
but now I get to hold you all night long 
how could that ever feel wrong.
all the years that weren't ours , like a feather on a breeze.
were just leading us here, from that night.  our midnight memories.
chorus]
we played in the dark.
strolled through the park.
made love in the pale moon light.
we talked until dawn.
I sang you a song.
and promised you peace in my arms that night.
I never forgot you,  or the note that you left. when you said goodbye I fell to my knees.
now five years have passed, and you're hear once again.  out of my dreams.  those midnight memories.

I'm home my love.
