Lyrics

Verse 1

You walked into my lonely night,
A flame that burned without a light.
You said the words I longed to hear,
Then vanished like you weren’t near.

Pre-Refrain

Your love was fast, your lies were sweet,
I danced, but lost my steady beat.

Refrain

Midnight eyes – you’re still inside my dreams,
Every look was more than it seems.
Midnight eyes – you shine and disappear,
But I feel you, year after year.
Midnight eyes – no one else can see,
How your gaze still follows me.
Midnight eyes – a love that never dies,
You haunt me with your midnight eyes.

Verse 2

You kissed me once, and time stood still,
But love was just your kind of thrill.
You promised me the sky above,
But left me empty, far from love.

Pre-Refrain

You played my heart just like a song,
And I kept dancing all night long.

Refrain

Midnight eyes – you’re still inside my dreams,
Every look was more than it seems.
Midnight eyes – you shine and disappear,
But I feel you, year after year.
Midnight eyes – no one else can see,
How your gaze still follows me.
Midnight eyes – a love that never dies,
You haunt me with your midnight eyes.

Bridge

They say eyes don’t lie...
but yours never said goodbye.

Final Refrain

Midnight eyes – you’re still inside my dreams,
Every look was more than it seems.
Midnight eyes – I see them when I cry,
The night begins... when you pass by.
