Song | Midnight Sun |
Artist | Ella Fitzgerald |
Album | Sings the Johnny Mercer Song Book |
[00:00.715] | Your lips were like a red and ruby chalice |
[00:31.850] | Warmer than the summer night |
[00:38.949] | The clouds were like an alabaster palace rising to a snowy height |
[00:52.188] | Each star it's own aurora borealis |
[00:58.505] | Suddenly you held me tight |
[01:04.937] | I could see the midnight sun |
[01:12.402] | I can't explain the silver rain that found me |
[01:19.009] | Or was that moonlit veil |
[01:25.717] | The music of the universe around me or was that a nightingale |
[01:39.473] | And then your arms miraculously found me |
[01:46.265] | Suddenly the sky turned pail |
[01:52.808] | I could see the midnight sun |
[02:00.344] | Was there such a night? |
[02:04.144] | It's a thrill I still don't quite believe |
[02:12.961] | But after you were gone |
[02:17.248] | There was still some stardust on my sleeve |
[02:26.620] | The flame of it may dwindle to an ember |
[02:32.736] | And the stars forget to shine |
[02:39.848] | And we may see the meadow in December |
[02:45.904] | Icy white and crystalline |
[02:52.304] | But oh my darlin’ |
[02:56.320] | Always I'll remember,when your lips were close to mine |
[03:05.672] | And I saw the midnight sun |
[03:14.071] | The flame of it may dwindle to an ember |
[03:52.156] | And the stars forget to shine |
[04:00.519] | And we may see the meadow in December |
[04:06.551] | Icy white and crystalline |
[04:13.615] | But oh my darlin’ |
[04:17.007] | Always I'll remember,when your lips were close to mine |
[04:26.931] | And I saw the midnight sun |
[04:32.047] | The midnight sun, the midnight sun, the midnight sun |
[00:00.715] | Your lips were like a red and ruby chalice |
[00:31.850] | Warmer than the summer night |
[00:38.949] | The clouds were like an alabaster palace rising to a snowy height |
[00:52.188] | Each star it' s own aurora borealis |
