Lady Midnight

Lady Midnight long time friend
Comes to talk with me again
Will her whispers echo out as she sows her seeds of doubt
How long ‘til this night will end

Well you know that my mind begins to roam
When the night on me has found a home
And beside me settles down, she wraps me in her gown
And soon my thoughts are lost within its folds

Lady Midnight knows me well
She’s perfected all the lyrics of her spell
And she sings into my ear words that I don’t want to hear
But I listen all to well

She holds me in her tender arms
Sheltering her pupil from all harm
When heavy hours stake their claim upon this weary frame
Her grip begins to tighten all around

I don’t know who I can believe, I try to make the best of me
As I walk these steps of an unknown destiny
But The Lady wants me at my best, sees I get a good day’s rest
And wake up just in time to welcome in my guest

Lady Midnight stays for hours
Exploring all the facets of her powers
For she knows her time is dear as the morning’s drawing near
Who knows how long her spell will last

For when those golden beams come shining down
And reveal the sheerness of her gown
Well she knows her pupil might become sober in the light
And see it’s time a new teacher is found
