Midnight On The Water
words: John Croziat, 1976, tune: traditional

There are times when I am blue
Thinking of you and me
At midnight on the water
And how it used to be
There are stars among the trees
In some old memories I know
At midnight on the water,
Not so long ago.
Though they're gone like floating dreams
The scenes were there as in a mirror
Made by the moon upon the water
And our love was never stronger
But the picture was broken
by the waves we left behind
At midnight on the water
Once upon a time.

There are times when I am blue
Thinking of you and me
At midnight on the water
And how it used to be
In the stillness of the lake
Where these thoughts take me again
At midnight on the water
Do you remember when?
Though they're gone like floating dreams
The scenes were there as in a mirror
Made by the moon upon the water
And our love was never stronger
But the picture was broken
By the waves we left behind
At midnight on the water
Once upon a time.
