The city lights are fading slow
A silent movie on my window
The midnight whispers start to glow
I hear the echoes from below
A distant siren cuts the air
A breath of something everywhere
The rhythm of my heart prepares
Midnight echoes call my name
A flicker in the static frame
A secret I cannot explain
This melody inside my brain
Midnight echoes in the rain
The pavement shines with yesterday
A ghost of footsteps slipped away
The neon signs have all turned grey
But in my mind the colors play
The humming wires start to weave
A truth I almost can't believe
A reason why I cannot leave
Midnight echoes call my name
A flicker in the static frame
A secret I cannot explain
This melody inside my brain
Midnight echoes in the rain
And every shadow knows the tune
Beneath the pale and lonely moon
It will be over far too soon
Midnight echoes call my name
A flicker in the static frame
A secret I cannot explain
This melody inside my brain
Midnight echoes in the rain
