Up to Midnight

                                  I leave the lights on all night when you're gone and

I roll up the shades and I see

My old companion who goes when the sun comes and

Takes my reflection from me



Sliding along

The whole world waiting for me

Can't you belong

To any reflection but me



We're playing cards and have just the same hand

I'm not losing and neither is he

Isn't it sad that so thoughtless and flat is

A perfect reflection of me



Are we alone

With kings and jokers and queens

Jacks are alone

With black and red colored dreams



[CHORUS]

Every day is a long climb up to midnight

And from there a roll and tumble into sleep



Somewhere the sky turns to grey and the world

Turns to paper between night and day

Just like my heart caught between light and dark

Like my friend who is going away



Why don't you see

Reflections mean what they say

Are you complete

Without my face in your way



[CHORUS]
