Lyrics Basking in the White of the Midnight Sun - Armageddon

Basking in the White of the Midnight Sun

Sitting on a lonesome beach
Holding shadow in one hand
Of a lovely flame I once called mine
On a patch of blazing white sand
Oh, princess, do you have to be so bold
I’ve read those signs that line your road before
But it’s too bad you had to go away
Gone tomorrow, but I see you today
But it’s too bad you had to go away
Like the sorrow of a one act play
It was years before on that sultry day
The wind was warm for months and days
But you’ll be here on the hot summer nights
And you’ll be here on the cold winter nights
And we won’t worry what’s wrong or right
Basking in the white of the midnight sun
Oh, darling, darling, don’t you fly too soon
My love’s burning red like the summer skies in June
And space and time speak the only truths
And legends tell the story of the past
But paste pictures took her final toll
But as they say, all things gonna pass
It’s too bad you had to go away
Gone tomorrow, but I’ll see you today
It’s too bad you had to go away
Like the sorrow of a one act play
Like the sorrow of a one act play
But you’ll be here on hot summer nights
But you’ll be here on the cold winter nights
And we won’t worry what’s wrong or right
Basking in the white of the midnight sun
Basking in the white of the midnight sun
Brother Ego
Brother Ego like a moth 'round a flame
Burn your wings yet again and feel the pain
On a fool’s trip take a turn to the left
Scream and shout, fall about, but leave it out
How I long for you to warm yourself
On my soul, in my heart it hurts apart
But instead I’m in trouble again
You’re outside right beside me, standing in the cold
Brother Ego, running round in circles
Why don’t you come on home that’s shining on Shining on forever more
Basking in the White of the Midnight Sun (Reprise)
Your passing by just beyond my reach
Has left me here without the power of speech
And leaning on the only form I know
I wonder if I should stay or go But going is a thing I couldn’t face
I’ve got to spend my time upon this place
It’s too bad I’ve got to be alone
The feelings will surely be outgrown
It’s too bad I’ve got to be alone
The seed’s there, I know it has been sown
I remember when you held me to your soul
I thought that I had reached my final goal
But you’ll be here in my thoughts and in my heart
No distance will keep us apart
And we won’t worry what’s wrong or right
Basking in the white of the midnight
Basking in the white of the midnight
Basking in the white of the midnight sun
Basking in the white of the midnight
Basking in the white of the midnight
Basking in the white of the midnight sun
