Midnight strikes but I can't close my eyes   These dreams of mine keep me sweating all night   It's hard to see this gift run away from me   Like water down the drain you watch it slip away      Daylight is closing in on me   It's closing in on me   It's closing in on me      Life brings another day   For some sunlight, others rain   What will it hold for me   There's hope my cards have not been seen      You know your heart will carry you through   It's all you need and all you ever will   And when the rain comes falling at night   You'll find it warm wherever you feel right      Where you feel right   When midnight strikes      A bright light shines   Through a crack in a well closed blind   And so the sun reminds   To all those counting time      Start over again   Watch the sun fall from the sky   When the smallest noise seems loud   You'll know midnight's struck      You know your heart will carry you through   It's all you need and all you ever will   And when the rain comes falling at night   You'll find it warm wherever you feel right      And when it's falling down upon your head now   You'll find me there with cover drawn   So close your eyes 'cause night is on the way now   And you lie awake when midnight strikes again
