Chorus:
Oh the midnight, need a searchlight.
Oh the midnight, need a searchlight.

I walk along the rocky shore,
The place I lost myself;
I search the water, look in the sky,
I hear the cries for help.
I trace my footsteps down to the sea,
But then the path disappears;
Here in the darkness, I'm runnin' blind,
Been stumblin' for all of these years.

[Chorus]

What was the demon that made me run,
Can I ever hope to understand?
I hear my voice, echoes on the wind
I try to reach out with my hand.
Without a light, I might be here forever,
Lost for all eternity;
There in the darkness,
Slippin' through my fingers,
The face that smiles back is me.

[Chorus x3]
