midnight
Chilliwack Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Midnight
Midnight all across the sea
Midnight
Share my midnight fantasy

Set your sails out over the water
All you need is a wind and you got her
Everything is easy and together
Everything is coming clear

Even if the breeze is barely coming round
We’ll sail away until the stars going down
Beauty of the silent ocean at night
Is going to take us a way

Midnight
Sailing the Midnight sea
Midnight
Midnight fantasy

Midnight
Come to me my Midnight girl
Midnight
Can’t you hear me calling you

If I come I would always hold ya
In my mind to tide me over
Just to be on the rollin’ water
It makes me feel so easy again

Even when I know it is just a fantasy
I can still feel the magic working on me
Beauty of the silent ocean at night
Is going to set me free

Midnight
Sailing the Midnight sea
Midnight
Midnight fantasy

Midnight
Midnight




Midnight
Midnight fantasy

Veo que hay 1 DJ del Reggaeton que no le gusta esta canción.

Nunca faltan los mandriles malditos !

Hermosa canción de Chilliwack, la otra canción k es muy buena es [ I believe ], búsquenla, es muy elegante y tan buena como [ Midnight ].

Lo que me llamó la atención es que el autor de esta subida (Moon1974G) subió el tema con una muy buena calidad de sonido, eso también se agradece muchísimo!

Siempre suben las porquerías a Youtube con una calidad asquerosa de 128kbps. Aprendan que deben subir música con calidad de 320kbps siempre!

Saludos!

Que tristeza me da este tema..lo encuentro trascendental y clásico.estos temas si que son un Tesoro para los oidos .que jamás deaaparezcan.

@cristianbarahona7259

Una gran canción. Acá en Chile si sonó en las Radios FM a principio de los 80s, pero por lo que he investigado no estuvo en los charts en los mercados Anglo, tampoco Chilliwack le prestó mucha atención al no incluirla en sus grandes exitos ni tampoco al parecer tocarla en conciertos, una lastima pero de todas formas una de mis canciones preferidas de todos los tiempos.
