Midnight

(albüm: American Noir - 2021)

As the sun descends over fields of snow
I feel contained under your control
In your black lipstick and the soul you stole
Girl, give in, let desire take hold

Oh boy, don't you look at me that way
Won't you hold me in your arms when they look away?

(Come on, I'm ready, I'm ready, come on, I'm ready...)

Because midnight belongs to you and me, baby
In the bedroom, in the dark right next to me
And every time we touch I fall apart
And you taste so sweet for such a bitter heart
Such a bitter heart

As the moon ascends and we're lying low
We're set ablaze in the winter cold
No heaven above and no hell below
In the purgatory of your arms now

Oh girl, there's a magic in the way
The satanic midnight moon can hear us say

(Come on, I'm ready, I'm ready, come on, I'm ready...)

Because midnight belongs to you and me, baby
In the bedroom, in the dark right next to me
And every time we touch I fall apart
And you taste so sweet for such a bitter heart
Such a bitter heart

So hold me like a gun with the safety off
Squeeze the handle firm and the trigger soft
All the stars will die, the oceans will melt
So take me now while the gods can't hear us
God can't hear us, god can't hear us
Come on, baby
Take me now while the gods can't hear us

Because midnight belongs to you and me, baby
In the bedroom, in the dark right next to me
And every time we touch I fall apart
And you taste so sweet for such a bitter heart
Such a bitter heart
