Midnight Hands
Like a new day risingLike a calm before the stormLike fog lifting from valleysOn a sleeping forest floorEyes open slowly as the dust is shaken offTo gaze upon the wreckageThat the midnight hands have wrought
And now II feel my temperature risingMy body explodeI feel like somebody's watchingLike I'm not aloneI stopped and I vowed right then I said that
Whatever path you take (the path you take)Wherever you might go (where you might go)Whenever you decide to leaveI will followI will follow
We face a crossroad never knowing what's in storeThere's an angel on my shoulderThere's a devil at my doorShe proclaimed, "tonight will beThe greatest of our livesBut i said, "don't be so sureLet's just wait until the morning light
I feel my temperature risingMy body explodeI feel like somebody's watchingLike I'm not aloneI stopped I vowed right then and said that
Whatever path you take (the path you take)Wherever you might go (where you might go)Whenever you decide to leaveI will followI will follow
There in the clearingWe gathered closeUnder the moon's pale lightWe laid out the tools"you don't have to do thisAnd I'd forgive you if you don't"She just looked away and said "I know"
Gripped by the midnight handsWe cradle futures they would preventGripped by the midnight handsThe lines crossed overThe dawn grows closerLet's bite off too muchLet's jump with a blind trustIn water over our heads
Whatever path you takeAnd wherever you might goAnd whenever you decide to leaveI will followI will follow
I won't bet on the falls you take (the falls you take)I won't let go if you started to strayI'll be there until you don't wake upI will followI will followI will follow
Whatever path you take (I will follow)Wherever you might go (I will follow)Whenever you decide to leave (I will follow)
