Julie London Midnight Sun
Your lips were like a red and ruby chalice warmer than
the summer night,
The clouds were like an alabaster palace rising to a
snowy height,
Each star it's own arora bora elis suddenly you held me
tight,
I could see the midnight sun.
I can't explain the silver rain that found me or was that
moonlit veil,
The music of the universe around me or was that a
nightingale,
And then your arms miraculously found me suddenly the sky
turned pail,
I could see the midnight sun.
Was there such a night? It's a thrill I still don't quite
believe,
But after you were gonethere was still some stardust on
my sleeve.
The pain of it may dwindle to an ember and the stars
forget to shine,
And we may see the meadow in December, Icy white and
crystalline,
But oh my darlin always I'll remember when your lips were
close to mine,
I could see the Midnight Sun,the Midnight Sun
