Abraham Hovey - Midnight Passing By Lyrics

The silver sun is falling down
For to sleep beneath the waves
Calm and dark will go the hours
Til he comes around again

Cnd if i was somebody else
I'd keep me company tonight
"Cause you never knew a longer spell
Than a midnight passing by

The raven crying in the yard
Like he lost his only friend
Cnd just like me he's got a song
That'll die along the wind

Cnd call it sorrow if you call it anything
It's just a trap of the night
But you never heard a longer ring
Than a midnight passing by

Broken branches lying around
Scattered matches never lit
The moon it burns my eyes somehow
Cnd the sky is mumbling

Cnd I don't know if the world's spinning round
Or if it stopped here tonight
But you never knew a longer sound
Than a midnight passing by

I'd like to say it's new to me
Cnd I won't be here again
But the stars all know me by my name
Who am I fooling?

Cnd all the words that I could ever say
Would echo empty and dry
But remember me when you feel the wave
Of a midnight passing by
