Midnight Blue

by Deirdre Stuart

One cold and lonily winter night, the full moon shining bright,
I sat upon the grass to hear sweet melody maker in my ear.
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh,
Oh where oh where did you come from?
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh,
Oh where oh where did you come from?

I could not see him standing there but felt his fingers in my hair;
Upon my neck he kissed me three, I knew that not from earth was he.
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh,
Oh where oh where did you come from?
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh,
Oh where oh where did you come from?

Sailor of the night time skies, I cannot see through your disguise.
Tell me what your name is true and then he whispered Midnight Blue.
Ooh, ooh, Midnight Blue, tell me, tell me if it's true.
Ooh, ooh Midnight Blue, there's no one else but you.

Ooh, ooh, Midnight Blue, tell me, tell me if it's true.
Ooh, ooh, Midnight Blue, there's no one else but you.

He swept me very far away, I could not see the light of day,
As I was in his magic spell and in the dark he loved me well.

Ooh, ooh, Midnight Blue, tell me, tell me if it's true.
Ooh, ooh Midnight Blue, there's no one else but you.

Midnight finds me wide awake with star dust in my eyes,
He takes me by the hand and leads me through the eastern skies.
I turn around to see the earth spinning all alone,
Midnight Blue I'm far away, so far away from home.
Midnight Blue I'm far away, so far away from home.

And time it never passed it seemed as if it were just all a dream;
Beneath the full moon's silent chill, Midnight Blue he loves me still.

Ooh, ooh, Midnight Blue, tell me, tell me if it's true.
Ooh, ooh Midnight Blue, there's no one else but you.
