Electric Light Orchestra - Midnight Blue Lyrics

I see the lonely road that leads so far away
I see the distant lights that left behind the day
But what I see is so much more than I can say
And I see you in midnight blue

I see you cryin' now, you've found a lot of pain
And what you're searchin' for can never be the same
But what's the difference 'cos they say what's in a name
And I see you in midnight blue

I will love you tonight
And I will stay by your side
Lovin' you, I'm feelin' midnight blue

I see you standing there, far out along the way
I want to touch you but the night becomes the day
I count the words that I am never gonna say
And I see you in midnight blue

I will love you tonight
And I will stay by your side
Lovin' you, I'm feelin' midnight blue

Can't you feel the love that I'm offering you?
Can't you see how it's meant to be?
Can't you hear the words that I'm saying to you?
Can't you believe like I believe?
It's only one and one it's true, still I see you in midnight blue

I see beautiful days
And I feel beautiful ways of loving you
Everything's midnight blue

I will love you tonight
And I will stay by your side
Lovin' you, I'm feelin' midnight blue

I will love you tonight
And I will stay by your side
Lovin' you, I'm feelin' midnight blue
