Basking in the White of the Midnight Sun - Armageddon

Sitting on a lonesome beach

Holding shadow in one hand

Of a lovely flame I once called mine

On a patch of blazing white sand

Oh, princess, do you have to be so bold

I’ve read those signs that line your road before

But it’s too bad you had to go away

Gone tomorrow, but I see you today

But it’s too bad you had to go away

Like the sorrow of a one act play

It was years before on that sultry day

The wind was warm for months and days

But you’ll be here on the hot summer nights

And you’ll be here on the cold winter nights

And we won’t worry what’s wrong or right

Basking in the white of the midnight sun

Oh, darling, darling, don’t you fly too soon

My love’s burning red like the summer skies in June

And space and time speak the only truths

And legends tell the story of the past

But paste pictures took her final toll

But as they say, all things gonna pass

It’s too bad you had to go away

Gone tomorrow, but I’ll see you today

It’s too bad you had to go away

Like the sorrow of a one act play

Like the sorrow of a one act play

But you’ll be here on hot summer nights

But you’ll be here on the cold winter nights

And we won’t worry what’s wrong or right

Basking in the white of the midnight sun

Basking in the white of the midnight sun

Brother Ego

Brother Ego like a moth 'round a flame

Burn your wings yet again and feel the pain

On a fool’s trip take a turn to the left

Scream and shout, fall about, but leave it out

How I long for you to warm yourself

On my soul, in my heart it hurts apart

But instead I’m in trouble again

You’re outside right beside me, standing in the cold

Brother Ego, running round in circles

Why don’t you come on home that’s shining on Shining on forever more

Basking in the White of the Midnight Sun (Reprise)

Your passing by just beyond my reach

Has left me here without the power of speech

And leaning on the only form I know

I wonder if I should stay or go But going is a thing I couldn’t face

I’ve got to spend my time upon this place

It’s too bad I’ve got to be alone

The feelings will surely be outgrown

It’s too bad I’ve got to be alone

The seed’s there, I know it has been sown

I remember when you held me to your soul

I thought that I had reached my final goal

But you’ll be here in my thoughts and in my heart

No distance will keep us apart

And we won’t worry what’s wrong or right

Basking in the white of the midnight

Basking in the white of the midnight

Basking in the white of the midnight sun

Basking in the white of the midnight

Basking in the white of the midnight

Basking in the white of the midnight sun
