Langhorne Slim
"In The Midnight"


In the moonlight
I was mistaken
Young hearts were breakin,
while we were apart.
I heard a crow caw,
I heard a dog bark
I saw the snow fall
and you were in my arms
I know it's me, who just could not agree
It wasn't them, who just wanted to pretend
Oh, Mama can't you see?

In the moonlight
I was mistaken
I wasn't fakin
on my quest to love you less
I tried to romance
I go out to dance, but I have no chance when it's You I love the best.
Last nite I walk alone
tonight I want to take you home
Say, Children

I know it's me, feels rooms always bend (?)
It wasn't them, with left less innocence (?)
No Mama can't you see?
I love you...
I need you...
I got to have you.
